How does staking return work on Eth2? I started working with this platform recently, so I still have questions.
Staking return is the passive income you get from a validator. A validator does its job by maintaining and developing the network and thus generates income.
What does the reward amount depend on? As far as I understand, there may be several factors.
Each time a validator performs a task, it generates income which can constitute good profit with time. The number of the performed tasks depends on the capacity of a validator and the total number of validators. According to the official information, you can expect the annual rate to be 15-18% during the first year and 8-10% during the next one. You can use a calculator in your personal account to estimate profitability.
