Starting with the 10+ largest PoS blockchains, including ETH, SOL and ATOM, the 4 million Bitpanda users can now participate in the security of these PoS chains and earn staking rewards while doing so.

Product update

ETH client validator diversity

In response to recent Ethereum transaction finalization issues, we’ve taken proactive steps to diversify our validator client options.

We're thrilled to announce full support for Lighthouse alongside Prysm and Teku, empowering you with even more choices. Our initial batch of 5,000 validators using Lighthouse is already live and validating!

Moving ahead, our aim is to establish a robust and balanced ecosystem with at least three clients — Prysm, Lighthouse, and Teku — ensuring minimal downtime and network impact during client failures through seamless transitions.

Reach out to us to deploy your Ethereum validators with the client of your preference.
