this is healthy & working as intended. The Ethereum PoS consensus mechanism doesn't overpay for security like PoW did. If there are more than enough validators, low yield encourages you to put your assets elsewhere validators are in service of Ethereum, not the other way around

This. So this. So much this. Worst thing about leaving Teku is having to deal with JSON-RPC instead of nice REST APIs again.

Literally the only thing worse than JSON-RPC. 😂😬

Pro tip: when playing in a country famous for rain, don’t lose the first two tests. It’s not “unfair” for a test to be rained out in England, it’s expected.

Just yesterday I pointed people to Ben’s book for the details about fork choice to help understand the reorg even though it didn’t directly address it. Now it does directly address it. 🎉
