Dappnode engaged us to design and implement Smooth, a “smoothing pool” that enables Ethereum validators to stabilize their staking rewards by pooling and proportionally redistributing them. As of July 2025, Smooth manages over $100 million in subscribed stake and has distributed more than $1 million in rewards. We’re proud
Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)-compatible blockchains have a neat way for off-chain services to learn about on-chain activity: events. Hereunder, we explain what they are and how to index them using Rust, with alloy handling the heavy lifting of interacting with the node, and tokio facilitating parallelization. Introduction to Events
In this post, we analyze Lido operators’ client diversity in the Ethereum consensus layer over time, observing the number of blocks proposed using each client starting from genesis until now. We also give an introduction to what client diversity is, what Lido is, how diversity can be studied, and last
We analyse the performance of the Ethereum consensus layer during The Merge, the event that ended with mining forever, cutting Ethereum's energy consumption by 99.9%. Introduction In this post we analyse the performance of different Ethereum staking pools/operators/stakers during The Merge (migration from Proof of
