I came up with an article across the web, explaining Ethereum's staking requirements in the future which is going to be a minimum of 32 ETH. Multiplying this with current prices, I get an average of $5,780 (USD) (at $180 per coin). This doesn't seem cost-effective for the average person, as it's somewhat expensive to start earning rewards from the ETH blockchain. If ETH devs leave that requirement for staking upon the launch of Ethereum 2.0, I'm afraid that the blockchain will be less secure than what it is right now (as less people will be able to keep the network strong). The best solution would be to lower the minimum ETH required for staking in order to encourage the average person to support the blockchain as much as possible. With lower costs, nearly anyone will be able to join the ETH blockchain, making it much more resilient against third-party attacks. What do you think about this? ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) Lol the ETH 2.0 staking reward is not for average people in the space, the way i see things only whales will benefit from the staking, well this won't be a problem though because ETH is the second biggest coin in crypto space today so many people will still rush to buy and start staking You were right about this. Only whales will benefit from these moves. There will be lots of risks if we get involved. Although ETH ranked second in the rankings, it brought too many risks. Compared to the ATH, the current price is /10

Let's just keep our fingers crossed as there is no official update to this end with regards ETH2. 0 staking from Ethereum foundation. Or if there is any official update, please a link will do, thanks.
I heard eth staking will be next year though there's still no specific date. While the ROI per annum will be in between of 1.5% to 18% but still depends on the validators. And yes 32 eth is big for us however if you guys really want to join the staking without running your own software and doesn't need to stay online, you could consider RocketPool to do staking on your behalf. You just need 1 eth to be eligible. But then again, stake at your own risk. Disclaimer: I'm not related to RocketPool or any affiliates.

I thought that 32 eth entry was maybe too low already.

Besides, the staking with large amount of new money can bring good profits for you and the system. because they need your money to be able to handle blocks much like PoW now. so it is a rule and the more money a person pays, the bigger the reward.

The pool will open and everyone will run to invest their coins in it, but what is the probability of the reliability of my investments that I will not lose my funds? Such a pool should be implemented by coin Ethereum developers, where everyone could invest their funds. Even if you implement the pos with 2 coins, it will be almost impossible to receive%, as there will always be whales who will confirm transactions faster than anyone else.

I do not yet know the mechanism for holders of 32 ETH in the future to receive actual passive income, but this is probably due to the fact that the number of wallets in excess of even such a minimum amount of 32 ETH is about 110,000. Apparently, this way the possible number of wallets to which payments will need to be transferred is reduced. Even 110,000 wallets, this is a huge job to make payments. Of course, I would like the minimum amount in ETH to be less.

the whole purpose of this ethereum 2.0 advertising campaign is to revive the ethereum project and pump it again. so with that whole purpose they have to force people to buy more ethereum in order to be able to participate in the free money giveaway called staking. 32 seems like a good choice in my opinion to server that purpose. and in the end it is only benefiting the whales and the super whales such as Vitalik and the ethereum foundation that own about 70 million ETH among themselves.

Weak hands have been complaining about missing out ever since bitcoin was $1 and never buy the dip. Whales are those who keep buying the dip.

This will probably result in some pump of Ethereum price before they implement ETH 2.0 but I am not sure this will be sustainable, and I even have doubts that whole thing will even work. Smart contacts and tokens are not going to transfer easy to PoS

I think staking of 32 ETH is actually required else any tom, dick or harry would enter into mining ETH which is not safe. Also, 32 ETH can be pooled up and even the income can also be divided. I did not find it a huge issue.

That pumps is going to be anticipated, they've already spread the word about this and I think Vitalik also spill this information during his speech about ETH2.0. For an average person he will really be trying to accumulate 32ETH just to get into this opportunity. Right now I guess the right is pretty high but when the pump is over I think we can still buy ETh at less than $150. Save your BTC for it if you have some plans.

There is this. Ethereum is doing this for the demand of ETH to rise. The stake reward is of course attractive but since the 32 ETH requirement is asked, it will be achievable only by the rich. 32 is not that big of a deal but it is not also one which is open to everyone who is interested. But I think this is not really to revive the Ethereum Project. There is nothing to revive with Ethereum because Ethereum is working pretty well. Developments are lined up on the project.

I hardly believe that ETH 2.0 will solve any problems. On the contrary, will create such a mess and will make the whole blockchain less secured. ETH needs to do something to attract new investors because the whole picture seems very disappointing.

Maybe if they reach their success with staking, i'm sure they will lower the requirement for inviting more people to join their staking feature.

There will surely people doing stake pools for eth if this is the case. That does mean that you will need to give your eth to someone else. Maybe the high entry-level price will encourage growth in the price? Let us first see how the staking works and what it has to offer before we jump to any conclusions. $5k might be worth it.

If people can come together in form of joint investment, I think they will be able to achieve the 32 ETH requirement. However, this comes alongside with trust. If they cannot trust themselves, then such will not occur. With this assertion and looking at the high level of it, it mighty not work.

That is a very large number and will definitely not be able to be reached by many people. But on the other hand this will make many big investors going to staking ethereum. This clearly makes the position of ethereum will be stronger in the future. This is also good for maintaining the stability of ETH prices in the market. I'm sure the ethereum developers must have thought of all the consequences.
Your logic is completely wrong here. Though you think that many big investors will buy ether and stake it, you miss the point here that very less number of people will be able to validate the blocks/transactions which means less number of people will have control over the network and this is bad for a reputable blockchain. A blockchain should have as many number of miners as it can have to be stable and widely distributed peer to peer network.

Of course, we can not easily trust them and nobody will do that either. That is why major exchanges will open a staking pool for their users that want to stake their ETH coins on their platform. Look at Binance for example, they have opened a staking pool for some projects. This is not a big issue for them to add more coin in their platform since they are going to get a reward from the staking.

32 ETH is only a lot if ETH was over 1K a coin. At its current levels, perhaps that number should be higher. It's certainly more doable than some masternode coins... even Dash at its rock bottom prices would run you about 70K.
Besides, I wouldn't be surprised if they have staking pools or leasing, that sort of thing, for smaller holders.

I am sure that if we need 32 ETH for a stake, then pools will surely appear. They will help those who do not have enough money, but who want to take part in the PoS on Ethereum. I myself would be happy to use the services of such a pool.
Pools would be an ideal solution for encouraging other people to earn rewards on the ETH blockchain. But, this would effectively centralize the system as we know it. The more people are able to stake on their own, the better it'll be for the decentralization and security of the ETH blockchain. This is somewhat similar to Bitcoin's PoW consensus, where only wealthy individuals are able to earn rewards and secure the network at the same time. Given that Bitcoin ASIC miners are not highly accessible to everyone, the Blockchain's consensus has been somewhat centralized by a few mining pools controlled by Bitmain. With Bitcoin's current state, a 51% attack could happen in any point in time. I believe that the same thing would happen with ETH in the future if devs don't lower the requirement of 32 ETH for staking. The Ethereum blockchain would effectively become centralized by big whales and corporations instead of the average person. Of course, people will still be earning rewards with any amount of ETH in staking pools. But they won't be able to support the ETH blockchain itself as costs will be too high. Imagine if ETH continues to rise in price to infinity and beyond. You multiply 32 ETH times the current price in USD (like for example $1,000) and the result will be an insane amount of money. The more expensive Ethereum becomes, the worse it'll be for its longevity as the barrier of entry for securing the Blockchain becomes higher over time. Nonetheless, time will tell us whenever ETH will truly adopt this requirement or not (with a community debate would be ideal). If it does, then expect ETH to become more centralized over the coming years. By then, we'll have Ethereum Classic as the true decentralized implementation of the ETH blockchain. Just my thoughts ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)
