Ethereum solo stakers were surveyed (n=125) for a sentiment check about their experiences with node bandwidth capacity, usage, monitoring, and whether they would anticipate adverse impacts if requirements were increased in future protocol updates.
This survey is limited in scope and was intended as a pulse check on the specific bandwidth subject. For a more exhaustive survey of solo stakers that EthStaker conducted in early 2024, see the Ethereum Staking Survey 2024 published on July 2, 2024.
Stay tuned for the next full Ethereum Staking Survey we plan to begin collecting responses for in early 2025.
Methods
A total of 125 responses were received during the dates of September 27 - October 8, 2024. The survey was conducted on DeForm, access was gated with a collection of POAP NFTs, and it was publicized on EthStaker's social channels including Reddit and Twitter.
Results
The .csv data file and .xlsx analysis file can be found on Github.
90% of the 125 respondents were home stakers.
56% track bandwidth usage with the majority using Grafana followed by modem apps and ISP tracking.
55% of Home or Partial Home Stakers expect increased bandwidth usage to have an adverse effect on their ability to run a node from home.
Adverse effect expectations rise by Download Speed Range and Upload Speed Range tiers as both speeds decrease, with the trend more pronounced for upload speed.
