Rocket Pool is a decentralized Ethereum liquid staking protocol that lets anyone participate in Ethereum proof-of-stake without running a full 32 ETH validator. Stakers deposit ETH and receive rETH, a rebasing-free yield-bearing liquid staking token that automatically accrues consensus and execution layer rewards and is freely composable across DeFi. On the supply side, permissionless node operators can run a Rocket Pool minipool with as little as 8 ETH (and a smaller RPL bond) — Rocket Pool pairs operator ETH with the rETH-backed deposit pool to fund full beacon-chain validators, and operators earn consensus rewards plus a commission from rETH users and RPL inflation rewards. The protocol is governed on-chain through the Protocol DAO (pDAO) and the Oracle DAO (oDAO) and is specified by Rocket Pool Improvement Proposals (RPIPs). The reference node software stack is the Smart Node (rocketpool CLI plus a Go daemon) distributed as Docker images, alongside Go and TypeScript/JavaScript libraries (rocketpool-go, rocketpool-js) for reading and writing protocol state directly against the Rocket Pool smart contracts on Ethereum mainnet. Rocket Pool has no centralized REST API, no hosted developer platform, no API keys, and no pricing — all participation is on-chain via Ethereum JSON-RPC and the protocol's deployed contracts.
