c. Deposit 32 Eth (with your deposit_data-timestamp.json) either through the Abyss Eth2 Depositer (which currently supports only Mainnet and Goerli) or Ethereum launchpad (Mainnet, Goerli).

After the initial 32 Eth deposit, you may check back after some time or so, as it may take more than 12 hours for a transaction to reach the deposit contract on Beacon Chain.
