Revamp the Staking page

[samajammin]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

As mentioned in our Q1 roadmap (#5105), improving the UX of staking is a key goal of our team. Part of this effort should be to revamp the Staking page.

Two clear areas of improvement we've identified are to expand our resources for both 1) pooled staking & 2) solo staking to make both processes easier to understand & easier to accomplish for visitors.

Describe the solution you'd like

Content & design solutions are being actively developed so input is welcome here but the high-level improvements we're thinking is:

• Redesign/restructure the existing Staking page
  • Less framing on running your own validator as the primary way to stake (move some of this info to a subpage)
  • Greater focus on the decision to run your own hardware or not vs. how much ETH your willing to stake (given there are now options to run a validator with less than 32 ETH)
• Create a new Staking Pools subpage (e.g. ethereum.org/en/staking/pools/)
  • Provide more education on how pools work & the considerations involved
  • List available staking services (using a clear listing policy Create a listing policy for staking services #5646) similar to how we list Ethereum wallets
• Create a new Solo Staking subpage (e.g. ethereum.org/en/staking/solo/)
  • Provide more education on how to solo stake & the considerations involved
  • List available tools/projects that assist with this
• Create a documentation section dedicated to staking (e.g. ethereum.org/en/staking/docs/)
  • Build out technical & non-technical resources for stakers
  • Integrate content from the community (e.g. Integrate kb.beaconcha.in content #2277)

Describe alternatives you've considered

Many 😅 - feel free to comment with feedback or alternatives of your own. We always appreciate input!

+100 on this!

As a staking participant, it was non-obvious to identify all the trade-off's between the various types of staking mechanisms on the website.

It'd be great if the we can incorporate a way to clearly compare and contrast the trade-off's in the new page design, including but not limited to:

• Staking reward
• Risks
• Financial/asset requirement
• Hardware requirement
• Technical requirement
• Maintenance difficulty (after initial staking)
• Liquidity before the Merge
• Implications to ecosystem decentralization
• Privacy of participation

Would love to help with this 🏗 what's the best way for me to learn about the latest development status? This seems like a large overhaul, not sure where I can break off a piece and chew :)

We've created a Figma prototype to get more detailed feedback on this.
The Goal is to the most feedback we can on a wireframe type of pages to set the content and flow right.

Please add your contribution using the comments in Figma

Any other ideas or questions just get them here. 🙂

Thanks for the input @lingzhong! I think that's a great list of considerations to include 😍

Amazing! @nloureiro just posted a design protoype (see comment above). I encourage you to check that out & add your feedback. We also have a public Discord - feel free to join the discussion in the 🥩｜staking channel: https://discord.gg/aQEq7GQsgE
