Case in point: was an early adopter of Eth, mined many of the very early blocks. Sold it all back in February. One of the reasons? The whole Eth 2.0 upgrade requires both a base level node (Ethererum sanctioned) and a "2.0 validator node" where one is supposed to trust a 3rd party implementation with minimally 10s of thousands of dollars per stake. At least with a 1st party node the Ethereum Foundation stood behind it but now there is no official release backing the future of the project, only a spec.
How is anyone sane supposed to run their own servers in this case?
