Collect some introductory staking resources for the readme

[colfax23]

It would be useful to have some quick links to resources on staking for users who stumble upon stakehouse. These resources should be general information about staking, pow/pos, what the risks/responsibilities are of running a node, etc. Not around setting up your node, because thats what StakeHouse is for. EthStaker has created many great resources, and I've seen many others around online.

To begin with, Lamboshi's hardware guide would be useful: https://ethstaker.cc/a-comprehensive-look-at-hardware-for-staking-by-u-lamboshinakaghini/

Please collect some resources and add them to the readme between the Demo and Usage sections.

Some more links:

• https://www.reddit.com/r/ethstaker/comments/jjdxvw/welcome_to_rethstaker_the_home_for_ethereum/
• https://www.reddit.com/r/ethstaker/comments/ju61pf/ethstaker_faq/

The idea here is to have a concise intro to what staking is and pointers for how to get more in depth information.

Will let you know once i finish in other comment, but wanted to leave the link here in order for feedback if necessary.

Thanks @martinbrion! I do not have access to the google doc - can you open it up?

Done

Off to a great start - a few questions/comments to think about while fleshing out the rest:

• Why is POS better?
• In POW your share of "votes" is tied to your compute, where is in POS it is tied to the amount of ETH you have staked
• POS uses much (99%?) less energy

Keep up the good work!

Jumping in here. @colfax23 check out #72 and let me know what you think. It seems for a README update the copy could be short with links to a more long form article? Something short & sweet with a link out to a long-form post like the one linked above.

I can help put together a longer form post too. I attached a quick draft on an overview of Eth2, EthStaker, Stakehouse etc. I believe if the post requires explaining staking POS vs POW we should probably just do a overview of Eth2. I took the angle of speaking from EthStaker/Stakehouse (figured this could be used on a wiki or site) and relied heavily on links throughout.

Can keep going in this direction if it would be valuable? LMK

Nice work @shawynot, thanks for taking the initiative on this. Merged #72 - I think that will suffice for the Readme. I'll take a look at the WIP post tomorrow and let you know how to proceed.
