From Mining to Staking - What Are Your Top Tips?

I’ve been in the crypto space for a while now. I used to mine ETH back when it was all about GPUs and hash rates. Got my first GPU waiting outside for hours in front of MicroCenter before open to get that pup. Honestly, those were the good old days – it was super fun to do, and I made way more ETH mining than I have with staking so far. But times change and I had to pivot.

Now, I’m diving into staking. I’ve been staking my ETH and a few other PoS coins, but I feel like there’s a lot more I could be doing to optimize my returns. So, I’m hoping to tap into the wisdom of this community.

Here are a few things I’m curious about:

1. What’s your go-to staking platform or wallet, and why do you prefer it?
2. Are there any underrated PoS projects that I should look into?
3. How do you keep your staked assets secure and manage the risks? I want to avoid anything sketchy.

I’d really appreciate any advice or tips you all might have. Thanks
