The case for @Rocket_Pool RPL is a bet on the value of resilient LST and institutions coming onchain. The protocol is great - rETH is as decentralized as it gets, and the node operator smart node is the best and most battle tested. The issue historically has been scaling restraints and tokenomics - both are being resolved. RPL is now going to be a fee token. You can stake in Rocket Pool without RPL or with RPL as a node operator. if you stake without RPL, some of your rewards go to people who do stake RPL. For example, @NasdaqBTCS is a node operator but they don't stake RPL (to my knowledge). Thus, some of their revenue is directed to nodes that do stake RPL. This gives an avenue to join for people who don't want RPL exposure but still benefits the token. Then there is scaling - Saturn 2 will enable nodes to launch new validators with as little as 1.5E per validator and offer an APR competitive with the best staking protocols, an >2x boost on solo staking APR.
