Corey Petty, Demetrick Ferguson, Jessie Santiago
About this episode

In this podcast, the HIO guys conduct an in-depth interview with Pol Lanski from DAppnode, highlighting the company's role in facilitating easy Ethereum staking and its innovative solution called 'Smooth,' which aims to level the playing field for home stakers against larger institutional pools. 


They explore the benefits of smooth for solo stakers, likening it to mining pools, and discuss the technological and economic impacts of these decentralisation efforts.
