Revamping Ethereum’s Staking Infrastructure: Is SSV.network the Solution to Pool Decentralization and Key Security?
“SSV.network, in partnership with the Ethereum Foundation, recently launched its mainnet aiming to decentralize Ethereum staking pools. Leveraging Distributed Validator Technology, it aims to increase validator resilience, enhance private key security, and minimize the risks of validator downtime.”
Ethereum Staking Redefined: Decentralized Pathway Led by SSV Network Challenges the Norms
“ssv.network has introduced a blockchain solution emphasizing on liquid staking, aiming for a higher level of decentralization. Given the centralization concerns around Ethereum’s staking mechanism where top exchanges and selected entities hold majority of staked ETH, SSV’s mainnet proposes an approach to mitigate these problems. This new system, facilitated by SSV smart contracts, encourages multiple operators’ involvement without needing external coordination.”
Preserving Decentralization: Ethereum Staking Giants Pledge to Self-Limit Market Share
Several leading Ethereum liquid staking providers, including Rocket Pool, StakeWise, Stader Labs, Puffer Finance, and Diva Staking, are adopting a self-limiting strategy to own no more than 22% of the Ethereum staking market, thus working to avoid a potential increase in staking centralization. This move is in contrast to entities like Lido Finance, which advocates for growth and dismisses the self-limitation approach.
Ethereum’s Liquid Staking: Controversy Erupts over 22% Validator Cap Debate
Ethereum liquid staking providers, including Rocket Pool, StakeWise, Stader Labs, and Diva Staking, have agreed to a self-imposed limit of 22% ownership of validators to maintain Ethereum’s decentralization. Proposed by Ethereum core developer Superphiz, this limit is seen as a means to prioritize network health over profits, requiring at least four major entities to finalize the chain. However, Lido Finance, the leading Ethereum staking provider, opposes this limit.
