· What it is: Ethereum execution layer clients include Geth, Nethermind, Besu, Erigon, and Reth, each maintained by an independent team.
· How to understand it: Client diversity is very important. If the vast majority of nodes use the same client, a vulnerability in that client could affect the entire network.
· Reminder: Before running your own validator node, assess your hardware, bandwidth, and ability to maintain it. Frequent downtime can affect your rewards.
