Gate.io ETH2.0 Staking Advantages

- Profit Sharing, Zero Fees: Gate.io adheres to the principle of profit sharing, distributing 100% on-chain earnings to users without a 10% fee. This profit-sharing mechanism not only increases the actual earnings of users but also demonstrates the platform’s commitment to maximizing user interests, ensuring users fully enjoy the economic benefits brought by the platform.

- Immediate Redemption of Up to 10,000 ETH: Redemption operations for Gate.io ETH2 are immediate for amounts up to 10,000 ETH, without any need for queuing. This meets users’ immediate needs for fast asset redemption. Such an efficient redemption mechanism allows users to quickly handle assets, effectively enhancing the platform’s liquidity and user experience.

- 100% Reserve for ETH2: All ETH2 on the Gate.io platform is backed by 100% reserve funds. This means that users don’t need to worry about their assets, as comprehensive security is provided for each user’s assets. This full reserve mechanism is a commitment to the safety of user assets and our pledge for the stable operation of the platform.

- Participation in ETH2 Staking Doesn’t Affect Existing VIP Levels: Engaging in ETH2 staking on Gate.io will not affect a user’s VIP level. Users can enjoy all the benefits included in their original VIP level. Gate.io is committed to ensuring that users maintain their original service privileges while participating in ETH2 staking, providing a more comprehensive and seamless trading experience.

Gate.io ETH2.0 Staking Plan

ETH2.0 staking has a relatively high barrier to entry, making it difficult for ordinary users to participate. To lower this barrier and avoid long-term capital lock-up in the ETH2.0 network, Gate.io utilizes its long-standing stable Ethereum blockchain infrastructure and mature, secure asset management solutions to offer a convenient and flexible ETH2.0 staking participation plan. The specific details are as follows:

- Gate.io will provide ETH2 tokens as a certificate for users to participate in ETH2.0 staking. Holding ETH2 signifies participation in ETH2.0 staking, with every 1 ETH2 staked on the ETH2.0 network eligible for staking.

- Users can buy ETH2 on the ETH2/ETH and ETH2/USDT trading markets. They can also sell ETH2 to transfer it to others.

- Gate.io will distribute staking rewards to ETH2 holders based on net staking profits.

- Staking rewards will be given in the form of ETH2, based on the user’s 14-day average ETH2 holdings.

- The annual yield from staking is related to the total amount of participation in ETH2.0. Initially, with fewer participants, the yield is higher, but it is expected to stabilize between 5-10% over the long term.

About ETH2.0

Ethereum 2.0 is the next-generation version of the Ethereum blockchain, aimed at improving the network’s scalability, security, and sustainability. A key feature is the adoption of the Proof of Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism, which differs from the current Proof of Work (PoW) mechanism.

Underlying Principles

The underlying principles of ETH2.0 mainly include the following three aspects:

- PoS Consensus Mechanism: ETH 2.0 will gradually transition to a consensus mechanism based on PoS, replacing the current PoW mechanism. In PoS, the generation and validation of blocks no longer depend on computational power but on the amount of tokens held by nodes. This is considered more environmentally friendly and scalable.

- Sharding Technology: Ethereum 2.0 introduces sharding technology, which divides the entire network into multiple smaller blockchains, each called a “shard.” This helps to increase the network’s processing capacity and throughput.

- eWASM: Ethereum 2.0 plans to use eWASM (extended WebAssembly) as the execution engine for smart contracts to improve execution efficiency.

Development Roadmap

The development blueprint of ETH 2.0 is divided into multiple key stages, with the first three stages - Phase 0, Phase 1, and Phase 2 - being significant milestones that shape the gradual evolution of ETH 2.0.

- Phase 0: Beacon Chain: In the ETH 2.0 development roadmap, Phase 0 marks the introduction of the Beacon Chain, a brand-new blockchain. The Beacon Chain is not only the command and control center of the ETH 2.0 ecosystem but also plays a critical role in enabling validators to participate in the staking system, thus operating and maintaining the network. Although, during this phase, the ETH 2.0 network temporarily does not support smart contracts and asset transfers, it lays the foundation for the operation of the validation process, making it a key pillar of the network ecosystem. Users will not be able to transfer their assets to exchanges in Phase 0, highlighting the focus and limitations of this stage.

- Phase 1: Sharding: The core goal of Phase 1 is the integration of shard chains. In this stage, ETH 1.0 will merge with ETH 2.0. Shard chains are a key expansion mechanism for the ETH network, breaking the Ethereum blockchain into 64 different chains, each responsible for processing specific data tasks. This sharding mechanism achieves parallel data processing, akin to splitting the main highway of the ETH network into multiple parallel lanes, significantly enhancing the network’s processing capacity and throughput. The implementation of Phase 1 brings significant technological advancements to ETH 2.0 in terms of data processing.

- Phase 2: Execution: The definition and functions of Phase 2 are still actively being explored, but it is already known that this phase will fully refine the sharding functionality. Each shard will manage an eWASM-based (ETH WASM) Virtual Machine (EVM), ensuring compatibility with smart contracts. Additionally, Phase 2 will support various core functions, including transfers, withdrawals, and cross-shard transactions. Importantly, Phase 2 will also complete the merger of ETH 1.0 and ETH 2.0, thereby entirely phasing out the PoW (Proof of Work) consensus mechanism and fully transitioning to the PoS (Proof of Stake) mechanism. The realization of this development stage will lay a solid foundation for the maturity and future development of ETH 2.0.

Conclusion

With the rapid development and continuous upgrading of blockchain technology, the traditional staking model is gradually becoming outdated, and validators may face the dilemma of not receiving sufficient returns. In the near future of ETH 2.0, staking will enter a more complex phase. Gate.io is actively responding to this change by providing its users with a flexible and efficient staking solution. This breaks down high entry barriers, allowing users to more easily integrate into the new digital asset ecosystem.
