📰🇹🇷 Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin published a new blog post titled "Increasing decentralization and reducing consensus cost with protocol and staking pool changes." The article touched on the two types of participants of the two-tier staking model (node operators and delegates), the two fundamental flaws in the current situation (node operators' risk of centralization and lack of consensus overhead), and the two-level staking operation. Additionally, the importance of the delegates in terms of the protocol was analyzed. The paper suggested three ways to expand the right to elect representatives: better means of voting within the pool; more intense competition between mining pools and closed delegations. And specific consensus involvement. 📉🔍
