Ethereum Staking: Centralization Risk, Lido vs Rocket Pool, $RPL + $RETH Utility

Darren Langley is the general manager of Rocket Pool which provides liquid staking services for ETH holders.

Liquid staking on Ethereum has been a major trend this year as it enables ETH holders to earn rewards by staking on the Ethereum network while additionally allowing stakers to seek financial opportunities with their staked ETH.

In our conversation, we will get into the Rocket Pool story since their ICO, details of what it takes to become an Ethereum validator and node operator, the utility of their native token, the issue of centralization among liquid staking protocols, and more.

But first, Darren will begin with an introduction to Rocket Pool.
