Ethereum staking is becoming easier by the day, as blockchain infrastructure provider InfStones offers a validator service to help users and institutional investors stake ETH with just a few clicks. With the upcoming Shanghai upgrade, a service aimed at validators, InfStones is expecting a heightened market demand for ETH staking.

At the moment, to participate in staking, users need to have at least 32 ETH. However, with this new validator service, participants with less than 32 ETH will be able to join the Ethereum staking ecosystem, allowing more users to join in. Furthermore, the service will enable institutional investors to set up around 1,000 validators for ETH staking.

Although there was an increased interest in staking prior to the Shapella upgrade, regulators from the United States put some pressure on the sector and affected the deposit trends of staking providers. Currently, liquid staking platforms are looking for more incentives when ETH gets released from the Beacon Chain following the Shapella update.

Overall, the Shapella upgrade is being received positively by the Ethereum ecosystem community. While developers have been praised for their work, some have suggested that those who made a profit should use their ETH to buy Non-fungible Tokens. Regardless of people's plans, users should take into account the current regulations set out by the US.
