Operational notes

Everstake’s pooled staking allows users to earn ETH staking rewards without being required to stake 32 ETH. Rewards begin when the pool reaches 32 ETH and the validator enters the active set.
Ethereum has a validator activation queue. Time to start earning depends on how long it takes for the pool to reach 32 ETH and the subsequent Enter Validator Queue Time.
After initiating exit, wait for Exit Validator Queue Time. Then use the WITHDRAW pending action to reclaim funds.
For institutional flows, validate with Shield.
