Description
I hope you're all doing well!
While Beaconscan works well, I've noticed that it sometimes experiences lag in providing data, which makes it somewhat pointless to me since I prefer to use Beaconcha.in for quicker data.
With this in mind, I'd like to propose the idea of considering Ethstakers.club as a potential replacement for Beaconscan. Ethstakers.club is a platform that I personally even prefer over Beaconcha.in. One key advantage is that it is ad-free, as I value a clean and uncluttered system and appreciate not having to install an ad blocker on my deposit machine. It always freaks me out when I accidentally click on an ad.
Alternatively, it would be great if you could add it as a third option.
Related: I think it would also be great to add it as an alternative API provider to add some diversity. This could address issues, such as #435. I just don't like that it currently always sends everything to Beaconcha.in.

Research direction
Start by locating the existing Beaconscan and Beaconcha.in integrations and the code that selects or displays the staking data provider. Confirm how a third provider would be represented and configured; done means Ethstakers.club is available as an option or API provider without breaking existing providers. No file paths or tests are named in the issue.
