Lock-up periodStaked ETH will be locked up until at least the merge (also known as the docking) of the Ethereum Beacon Chain with Ethereum 1.0 happens. It is estimated that the merge will happen during the second quarter of 2022 and that withdrawals will be enabled then, but there is no exact date set yet.
CompoundingWhen staking ETH directly, the reward compounding process is manual and will only be possible after withdrawals are enabled.
Slashing riskEthereum has implemented a slashing mechanism in case the validator misbehaves:
- Double proposal
- Double attestation
- Voting conflicts with historical voting
