Assess the bank’s risks One of the biggest risks a bank has is losing money on an outstanding loan. The lower the efficiency ratio, the more revenue a bank theoretically has. Efficiency ratio: the efficiency ratio tells you how much revenue a bank uses towards its operating costs. The higher the ROA, the more profit a bank makes from its assets. Return on assets (ROA): the ROA tells you the overall profit a bank makes in relation to its assets. The higher this metric, the more efficient a bank is using its stakeholder’s money. Return on equity (ROE): this metric tells you how much profit a bank makes from its shareholder’s equity. To do that, you can use the following metrics. Look at the bank’s profitability First, you want to be sure the bank is even profitable. Over time bank stocks have been relatively safe investments, as they offer products and services that most people need. Bank Stocks What are bank stocks? Bank stocks represent partial ownership in a financial institution that’s licensed to hold and loan money.

The bottom line here is that Ethereum could spike in 76 days when Ethereum switches to proof-of-stake validating. That will make it a deflationary supply, just like Bitcoin, and enhance its price movement upward. Indeed, with the recent EIP 1559 proposal, which I discussed in previous articles, it is possible that the supply of Ethereum tokens may fall. In other words, expect to see a huge gain in the price of Ethereum over time simply due to the elimination of an inflationary supply. That dramatically increases the value of the currency by reducing its dilution. This will drop to less than one-half of one percent per year. So, every year, there is an inflation increase of almost 4.5% in the total supply through rewards granted to miners. Right now, according to, there are about 120.4 million ETH tokens in the circulating supply. Instead of the current 5.4 million new ETH tokens granted per year, it will drop to just 0.54 million a year, according to Lark Davis who runs a popular YouTube channel. One additional factor about the transition to PoS is that the number of rewards to validators will drop dramatically. This could give Ethereum a huge environmental-friendly advantage over Bitcoin for many institutional investors. So far, for example, Bitcoin ( BTC-USD) has no plans to move away from proof-of-work, which is mining. There Ethereum blog says it will reduce electricity by 99.95%. He says that Ethereum will reduce the amount of electricity needed by a factor of 100 and possibly 10,000. Last May, Vitalik Buterin, Ethereum’s Candian-Russian co-founder, told Fortune magazine that Proof-of-Stake could solve the environmental woes tied to cryptocurrency.

The Bottom Line on Ethereum’s Transition to Proof of Stake Keep in mind there are risks, including having your Ethereum tokens as collateral. Suffice it to say that one must completely study any particular ETH staking pool.

The issue of whether this can be profitable is not for discussion here, as it can become quite complicated. This is based on how much Ethereum one stakes. These pools combine Ethereum tokens to become part of a pooled validation company that splits up rewards. Many mining companies will become validators. Moreover, you need large amounts of computing power (900GB expanding at 1Byte per day). You then submit an application to set up a node on the blockchain. At today’s Ethereum price of $3,100, that amounts to $99,200. To become a validator, you have to have 32 ETH tokens that you put up as collateral on the Ethereum blockchain. No one can tamper with or modify that particular block or epoch. When two such epochs clear validation, they become an attestation.

The 32 committees then process validations. This article from CNBC describes the details of how a blockchain is broken up into 32 blocks called an “epoch” and then into 32 “shards.” Then, a committee of 128 validators is chosen randomly. The actual process of validation and “attestation” is difficult to understand. This is much faster than its existing 13 TPS now, according to CNBC. The new PoS mechanism will allow the processing of over 100,000 transactions per second (TPS). What Will Happen With Ethereum Proof of Stake
