Wagyu (formerly known as StakeHouse) is an application aimed at lowering the technical bar to staking on Ethereum 2.0.

Dubbed a 'one-click installer', it provides a clean UI automating the setup and management of all the infrastructure necessary to stake without the user needing to have any technical knowledge.

Wagyu:

• only runs on Ubuntu (see below for more system requirements)
• is not audited - use at your own risk
• is currently experimental and still under development
• only runs on pyrmont (right now)
• does not currently do anything with real ETH or mainnet (DO NOT USE REAL ETH)

Wagyu (while it was known as StakeHouse) did a demo at the EthStaker Validator Workshop - take a look here.

There are no releases yet, please see the setup section under development to run the latest version.

Theres plenty left to do with Wagyu. If you'd like to help out come join us on the EthStaker discord, channel #stakehouse, or reach out to Colfax (discord username: colfax#1983) directly.

Also try it out (feedback welcome!), take a look our demo above, and/or browse our open issues (start by filtering by the label 'small').
