Coinbase supports staking ETH into ETH 2.0 without needing 32 ETH to do so. You can put pretty much as little as you want in. Yield is 3.68% right now. You can see what you're earning but you won't be able to move it until the ETH merge.

Or 4.75% running it yourself, & figuring out how to run a validator seems more fun than handing coinbase your funds. I strongly disagree with people having their crypto held by third parties

If you feel like purchasing the 32 ETH to run a validator and/or set things up with a staking pool, that's great, have fun. I personally don't have that much, and I was also hesitant to put it into a staking pool since I couldn't just unstake it whenever, and I trust Coinbase a bit more than a staking pool. I have most of my crypto in non-custodial wallets myself.

Was just mentioning it in case you (or someone else on HN) weren't aware it was an option, but clearly you are.
