@wackerow, Paul, hello! Can you please take a look at these request?

[github-actions]

This issue is stale because it has been open 45 days with no activity.

[irina-everstake]

This request is live. Response from Jakub Konopka:

"Hello, I know this is frustrating situation. It is indeed taking a long time. Please be patient with us, we are well aware of this request, but there are still other issues and work that needs to be reviewed first. We will get to this eventually."

[wackerow]

@irina-everstake Apologies for delays, this looks good. Am a little curious to learn more about the up to 10% APR claims—do you happen to have evidence behind this claim?

I see you marked "yes" to wanting to work on this... a PR is welcome for the next step, I went ahead and assigned you... To help out, I've parsed the above into the format we use for the saas products:

    {
      "name": "Everstake",
      "imageName": "Everstake",
      "hue": 43,
      "launchDate": "2023-09-14",
      "url": "https://stake.everstake.one/ethereum/",
      "audits": [
        {

          "url": "https://chainsecurity.com/security-audit/everstake-eth-b2c-staking/",
        },
        {
          "name": "Ackee 2023",
          "url": "https://ackeeblockchain.com/blog/everstake-ethereum-staking-protocol-audit-summary/"
        }
      ],
      "minEth": 0.1,
      "additionalStake": null,
      "additionalStakeUnit": null,
      "monthlyFee": 10,
      "monthlyFeeUnit": "% rewards",
      "isFoss": false,
      "hasBugBounty": false,
      "isTrustless": true,
      "isPermissionless": true,
      "pctMajorityExecutionClient": 60,
      "pctMajorityConsensusClient": 100,
      "isSelfCustody": true,
      "platforms": ["Browser"],
      "ui": ["GUI"],
      "socials": {
        "discord": "https://discord.gg/PqrbhKNpA5",
        "twitter": "https://twitter.com/everstake_pool",
        "medium": "https://medium.com/everstake"
      },
      "matomo": {
        "eventCategory": "StakingProductCard",
        "eventAction": "Clicked",
        "eventName": "Clicked Everstake go to link"
      }
    },

Feel free to adjust if you see anything wrong, but in either case this would need to go into the saas: section of src/data/staking-products.json... Would also need an icon, which can be a little tricky how we have it set up, but it would need to go into src/components/icons/staking/EverstakeGlyphIcon.tsx. This will be rendered next to the product name, so I would recommend only using the actual logo, minus the text portion.

Let us know if you have issues or need a hand with any of this!

@wackerow, hello! I appreciate your help and support here.
Sharing with you the link to the contract, as you requested in Discord - https://etherscan.io/address/0xd523794c879d9ec028960a231f866758e405be34

Regarding APR - we even covered this in our article: https://everstake.one/blog/13-apr-on-ethereum-luck-or-the-result-of-partnering-with-a-reliable-validator including links. Hope this helps!

As of checking our card, my colleague will step in and help, providing a slightly updated version for pctMajorityExecutionClient (currently we have 50% Geth, here is the proof: https://twitter.com/everstake_pool/status/1759955444716408863) and platforms, as well as the icon.

Thanks one more time!

Would it be possible to list us in both "Staking as a service" and "Pooled staking sections"?
Thank you in advance!

[wackerow]

@omykhailovskyi could you help clarify, can users deposit 32 ETH to have their own dedicated validator account? Or do the funds pool together with proportionally shared rewards?

[omykhailovskyi]

Yes, we provide such service for our Institutional clients as per request.
So we have one solution for staking 0.1+ ETH for Retail customers and another solution for staking multiples of 32 ETH for our Institutional clients.

[wackerow]

Okay, my apologies, I see that now... This PR is for pools, and #10220 is for SaaS.

Don't see why that would be an issue. Thanks for the info @omykhailovskyi; I can get a PR up for these to help move things along.

[omykhailovskyi]

Thank you in advance!, @wackerow
