Ethereum needs 32 coins to be staked to become a validator. Each validator can earn about 4.5% in validation rewards per year. Further, your funds in a validation node are much more secure than other wallets as your keys are secured inside Ethereum’s software. If any of these wallets decide to become a validator, they can easily set up a system as ETH 2.0 requires much less computation and is much less energy-consuming.
