Ethereum (ETH)
Ethereum uses Proof-of-Stake (PoS). Validators require at least 32 ETH to activate; Pectra validators with 0x02 withdrawal credentials support effective balances up to 2048 ETH.
MAVAN offers multiple ways to stake ETH depending on your custody setup and operational needs. All methods are non-custodial. You retain full control of your ETH.
Whether you're deploying 32 ETH or 10,000+ ETH, MAVAN provides the flexibility, transparency, and reliability required for long-term staking success.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who controls the ETH?
You do. ETH is never held by MAVAN. You retain full control via your custodian or wallet, and nominate both the Withdrawal and Fee Recipient addresses.
How much ETH is needed to stake?
32 ETH is the activation minimum. Pectra validators using 0x02 withdrawal credentials can have an effective balance from 32 ETH up to 2048 ETH. The MAVAN Pectra API accepts a total stake amount and can allocate up to 2048 ETH per validator; you may set a lower per-validator cap when you want the stake split across multiple validators.
How long does it take to activate?
Activation time depends on Ethereum’s entry queue.
When are staking rewards paid?
Consensus-layer rewards accrue every epoch. Distribution timing depends on your configured payout arrangement.
How do I withdraw staked ETH?
You can request an exit at any time via the Command Center, API, or directly through your custodian. Withdrawal timing depends on Ethereum’s exit and withdrawal queues.
