Urgent report!!!
According to The Block, MetaMask developer Consensys has launched a staking pool feature that allows users to stake any amount of Ether to provide security for the Ethereum network and receive validator rewards. Previously, only users with at least 32 ETH could stake directly on validators operated by Consensys. MetaMask users can redeem their Ether at any time, but there is a waiting time, which depends on the current Ethereum validator exit queue. The service is being rolled out in phases, available to some qualified users starting today, and is planned to be open to more users in the coming days. The staking pool service leverages the open modular architecture of Ethereum liquidity staking protocol StakeWise to support its smart contracts. The initial launch does not include users in the United States and the United Kingdom, but future plans also include a launch in these markets. Consensys claims that the MetaMask staking pool is supported by more than 33,000 custodial Ethereum validators, with a total staking of more than 1 million ETH, no penalties, and a validator participation rate of more than 99.9%.
