nordlys on Nostr: Vitalik has apparently realized that a decentralized PoS blockchain doesn’t really ...
Vitalik has apparently realized that a decentralized PoS blockchain doesn’t really work and is now suggesting cutting down the number of validators drastically in order to reduce complexity and potential attack surface. Imo, this further proves that PoS can never be anywhere near as decentralized as #Bitcoin. And that’s perhaps okay. We can have a eco system of blockchain based app platforms, and then we have #Bitcoin for payments and global financial infrastructure.
