A chat about nodes and validators:
After the “Merge,” running an Ethereum node requires running two pieces of software: an execution layer client and a consensus layer client.
In addition to running a node, validators must propose blocks and vote according to the rules. Being offline for an extended period can result in part of their balance being deducted, while misconduct can result in their stake being slashed.
