Ethereum
ETH
Ethereum is the world's largest and most decentralized Layer1 blockchain. The network is used for building dApps, holding assets, transacting and communicating without being controlled by a central authority. The Ethereum vision is to build a digital future on a global scale, that is powerful enough to help all of humanity. You can find our Staking terminal here.

Staking Guides
Staking Mechanics
Reward Frequency
Every Epoch (~6.4 minutes)
Auto-compounding
Yes (only for 0x02 withdrawal addresses)
Penalty
Validators can lose a small amount of ETH for minor infractions not considered "slashing". The most common minor penalty is for inactivity or going offline.
Slashing
Maximum Slashing penalty for an Ethereum validator is the loss of their entire staked 32 ETH. Reasons for Slashing include:
Double proposing a block (signing two different blocks for the same slot).
Double voting (attesting to two conflicting blocks for the same slot/checkpoint).
"Surround" voting (attesting that contradicts a previous vote, effectively changing history)
Unbonding Period
fixed 256-epoch withdrawal delay is still approximately 27.3 hours + Withdrawal delay (variable)
