Vitalik Buterin, the co-founder of Ethereum, has proposed measures to reduce the load on the Ethereum blockchain and simplify its proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus.
The proposal aims to decrease the number of signatures validators must make to maintain the network’s operation, ultimately reducing the overall load on the Ethereum blockchain.
Ethereum Co-Founder Proposes Adjustments
Ethereum’s attempt to achieve decentralization and involve regular users in staking by supporting around 895,000 validators has led to significant technical challenges.
The need to process a large number of signatures, approximately 28,000 per slot, imposes a high load on the network. The approach has drawbacks, including limitations on quantum resistance, complex forking, and the need to scale signatures through zero-knowledge proofs (SNARKs).
A PoS simplification proposal: make a design that only requires 8192 signatures per slot (even with SSF), making the consensus implementation considerably simpler and
