A normally behaved validator will not have its balance dropped below 32ETH even if you initiate a partial withdrawal request. This can only be achieved if validator receives penalty. Nothing will happen except reduced rewards. However if balance drops below 16ETH, the validator will be exited and the balance will be transferred to the execution layer withdrawal address. @@ -107,4 +107,4 @@ The effective balance increments 1ETH at a time.
