ethereum-staking-guides VS clientdiversity-org

My guides (https://github.com/SomerEsat/ethereum-staking-guides) are very detailed but require more effort/technical knowledge. However if you like learning and having mastery of your environment, it could be a good (and fun!) option, too. You can start with a testnet if you want to practice without risk.

Not a talk on stage, but I did get to meet and chat quite a bit with Eridian, who has been developing the EthStaker Knowledge Base. Sounds like the goal isn't to be an installation guide like CoinCashew's or Somer Esat's, but instead a platform- and client-agnostic resource that should be useful for all stakers. Lots of FAQs, supplemental guides (e.g. resyncing geth and setting up a home VPN), and explanations of various staking concepts.

Alessandro said it'd be a few days before he can get me a data endpoint, but once that happens I'll have clientdiversity.org updated in a day or 2

Ethereum is the most decentralized transaction ledger in the world, with thousands of nodes distributed across the world, and more client diversity than any other blockchain that I'm aware of:

The move to Proof of Stake has also made solo validation accessible to parties other than large pools.

there are guides on https://clientdiversity.org/

Large number of nodes does not equal decentralization. In Ethereum, like all other networks/countries, power tends to consolidate. All the consensus power is consolidated to 1-2 entities.link Hedera is already far more decentralized.

Apparently that’s the case, yes: https://clientdiversity.org/ though the source says „data might not be 100% accurate“, but I guess it’s sure geth dominance is down.

Execution clients only run GETH. Client diversity isn’t even great per eth foundation: https://clientdiversity.org

10+ separate companies implement the protocol in 10 completely different independent code bases https://clientdiversity.org/

As I said this is the second time I did this "report" and asked for better sources the first time as well. In the end I did my best to find reliable sources, but even back then I really wasn't sure if these numbers are correct. And if you look at https://clientdiversity.org/ there are even two data sources you can choose that really differ... so +1 to the irony of our industry...
