Intro

Greetings from the first issue of Rhino Review - Ethereum Staking Journal!

You may be wondering what Rhino Review is and why it's necessary. Like Ethereum, the Ethereum Staker community is growing and more sophisticated with each passing day. In Rhino Review, I've compiled the latest news in the Ethereum staking ecosystem and presented them to you refinedly.

My motivation for this project was inspired by a sentence shared by Danny Ryan in his most recent post: ''Ethereum is alive and well. Do your part to keep it that way.''

See you in two weeks! 🦏

226 out of 523,000 validators on the beacon chain have been slashed. This is nothing to lose sleep over. Many slashings have occurred during failed system migration. Here are four emerging best practice tips to avoid this:

Solo staking is the gold standard of the beacon chain Fractional staking #RPL, empowers more stakers yet adds to decentralisation (more nodes) However, carries some Contract risk Exchange staking, centralises staking -Contract risk + Custodial risk (the main theme of 2022)

It would be nice to get some news about Stader too, not just solo Staking, Lido or RocketPool. Would you mind considering this ?
