## ETH2 PoS Economics 1
* PoS incentivizes stakers via rewards (sliding scale based on total stake).
* Latest spec is 1024 shards and a 256 committee size (262k validators)
* If incentives are too low, node count could be low, putting the chain at risk.

## ETH2 PoS Economics 2
* Stakers are putting up capital and think of it as an investment (interest on ETH holdings)
* They will compare against other options like [@compoundfinance](https://twitter.com/compoundfinance) and [@DharmaProtocol](https://twitter.com/DharmaProtocol)
* If staking interest isn't attractive, some will go elsewhere
