Ethereum Staking

Ethereum 2.0 brings Proof of Stake to the Ethereum network and it is now possible to stake ETH and get rewards. Participating in ETH 2.0 staking requires 32 ETH and validator construction technology but Guarda made it all nice and simple for you.

If you don't want or can spend 32 ETH on running your own Ethereum staking validator. You can easily join Guarda's ETH staking pool and start staking Ether with as little as 0.1 ETH. Here is a tutorial for you.

The annual interest rate is currently % and depends on the total staked amount in the network.

The minimal stake is 0.1 ETH.

The service fee is 10% of on-chain rewards.

The annual profit for ETH staking is currently about 1%, 0.1% of which is charged by our service to pay for servers and maintain sustainable infrastructure. So, if you stake 10 ETH today, you will have 11 ETH in a year. You need to have GETH on your account at all times in order to receive rewards.

According to the Ethereum staking rules, staked Ether and rewards are frozen in the network until the launch of phase 2 of Ethereum 2.0 (approx. in 2 years) thus currently it is impossible to withdraw ETH.

However, to provide our users with a more flexible option we will issue ERC-20 GETH tokens, Guarded Ether, which you will receive in a 1:1 ratio to ETH. You will be able to sell this token using DeFi exchanges like Uniswap while your Ether is locked.

Starting January 2022, the GETH rewards will be distributed every 3 months, from 25th to 5th. Since deposited ETH and rewards are frozen by the network, we will distribute GETH token which is in a 1:1 ratio to ETH.

Yes, it will be possible to swap earned GETH tokens to ETH 2.0 in a 1:1 ratio when phase 2 of Ethereum is launched (approx. 2 years).
