Ethereum Foundation researcher Michael Neuder and SMG chief researcher Max Resnick published a paper titled "Concurrent Block Proposers in Ethereum" proposing to increase the number of proposers in a single Ethereum Pos Slot.
Currently, block proposers have unilateral power over the set of transactions included in a 12-second period and can therefore change the list of transactions, making the second-largest blockchain susceptible to centralization issues. Michael Neuder suggested introducing the simplest version of the "dual proposer construction" in Slot, electing two validators as those eligible to propose blocks.
According to previous news, Ethereum may see more changes in verification design after the Dencun upgrade in 2024. Currently, the issue of validator deposits has been added to the Electra hard fork agenda from the fourth quarter of 2024 to the first quarter of 2025. #zachxbt
