Generate your Eth2 withdrawal address key pair in 1 click and keep it safe on your phone. Stake on Eth2 - if you have 32ETH.
Eth2 staking is here, and many people are already staking ETH on Eth2 beacon chain. The deposit contract is already holding 4 million ETH, which is around 3.4% of all ETH currently in circulation.
