CoinDesk: To Stake or No? That’s the Eth 2.0 Question
 

Stakers need to weigh the complexity of running nodes on a major chain with the risk of being slashed for failing to stay up persistently or for other issues such as double-signing. Ethereum 2.0 staking requires the commitment and hassle of maintaining a node for years. Those inclined to support network security and earn steady yield may still shy away from the obligations of regularly tending to their servers.

That’s where staking-as-a-service providers come in – and again people have choices to make. As with many areas of cryptocurrency, a core decision is whether to give up your asset to a provider, or to choose a non-custodial service instead. At my company, Staked, we believe investors should have help in earning yield without having to give up custody of their assets.

Decrypt: Ethereum 2.0 Is Set to Launch, But It Won’t Be Ready to Use

Ogilvie said that the most aggressive estimates for Phase 1 is six months and two years for Phase 2. β€œThe more conservative estimates are significantly longer than that. So you're talking years before you have a full transition from ETH 1.0 to ETH 2.0.”

 

Fantastic coverage from CoinDesk and Decrypt!
