Đánh giá dự án
Rocket Pool is the first truly decentralized Ethereum staking pool that allows users, dApps, and businesses to earn rewards on their ETH holdings. With Rocket Pool, users can join the decentralized node network or run their nodes with only 16 ETH.
On Rocket Pool, Ether holders can lock up as little as 0.01 ETH and receive the rETH liquid staking token in return. rETH is what proves a user is entitled to staking rewards over time and accrues yield for them.
Rocket Pool node operators receive up to 7.26% per year, while stakers receive 4.68%. Stakers receive their rewards in RPL, while node operators stake RPL on nodes as collateral for any penalties they incur.

Phát triển gần đây
The low entrance to ETH staking on Rocket Pool has made it one of the most used decentralized staking platforms. In December, the project had an average total value locked (TVL) under $600 million.
However, the project has now celebrated crossing the $1 billion TVL mark. At this writing, over 2,000 node operators have staked 385,920 ETH coins on the Rocket Pool network. A drop in the price of ETH in the last 24 hours now has Rockel Pool’s TVL slightly under the $1 billion mark.

Rocket Pool là một trong những giao thức hợp tác trong sự ra mắt dịch vụ mới nhất của MetaMask. Là một phần của quá trình ra mắt, người dùng bây giờ có thể đặt cược vào ứng dụng MetaMask bằng cách sử dụng giao thức Rocket Pool.
Rocket Pool cũng đã nhận được sự chú ý ngày càng tăng trong tài chính phi tập trung (DeFi). Chỉ riêng trong tháng 2, Vesper Finance, Silo Finance, Yield Protocol, và Index Coop đã đưa ra hỗ trợ cho token RETH của Rocket Pool.
Với sự đàn áp gần đây đối với các nhà cung cấp khoanh vùng tập trung, bao gồm Kraken, có những dự đoán rằng Rocket Pool có thể nhận được nhiều sự chú ý hơn, đặc biệt là khi chúng tôi tiếp cận ngày cho việc tháo gỡ Ethereum trên chuỗi đèn hiệu.

Future Events
As the Rocket Pool ecosystem grows, the team is implementing measures to ensure the protocol remains decentralized and secure. A proposal has been put forward by author Valdorff to ensure Rocket Pool doesn’t grow to the detriment of the Ethereum network.
If passed, the proposal will see Rocket Pool establish a guiding set of principles to inform the decision-making process on the protocol in limiting the percentage of staked ether in its ecosystem. Snapshots show that over 99% of the voters favor the proposal.
The Rocket Pool team is also preparing for the launch of Atlas ahead of the upcoming withdrawal fork (the Shanghai Upgrade). The proposal will also allow for easier motion of ETH from the rETH contract to the deposit pool
A key part of the proposal is to keep maximum (APR) drag in mind when the withdrawal fork happens. More than 99.78% of the voters favor the proposal being passed by its deadline, February 13th.
On the Flipside
- Per the proposal, Rocket Pool is far away from being the single reason for the collapse of the Ethereum network.
- While it contributes only 1.66% to all the staked ETH deposits, its competitor Lido Finance contributes more than 29%, per data from Ether Scan.
Community
Rocket Pool is a fast-growing community. It also has highly involved enthusiasts dedicated to onboarding new members and teaching them how to run nodes and navigate the network.
Here’s how @Jasper_ETH, a popular advocate for the protocol, describes the Rocket Pool community:
When planning to decentralize it appears the VC investors are silent.
Meanwhile, the @Rocket_Pool community analyzes and dissects every decision.
If Rocket Pool and Lido designs are converging, I’d rather be on the side that already has a community.

Bullish about the prospects of RPL, node operator @shf_ryn tweets:
The amount of bullish news leading up to Shanghai and @Rocket_Pool‘s LEB8 implementation has been insane. Another milestone in the books for $RPL. https://t.co/RjfI78nOgj

Why You Should Care
The mission of Rocket Pool has been to encourage small and independent home stakers in alignment with Ethereum’s core values. The proposals show the protocol’s desire to stick to these values.
