Lido Tests of 'Distributed Validator Technology' Portend 2024 Decentralization Push

A big selling point of blockchain networks is that they are "decentralized." But just a few validators, including those run by Lido, have gradually amassed a lion's share of the power over the dominant smat-contracts blockchain, Ethereum. One idea is to decentralize the validators themselves.

"Validators are single-engine planes. If a validator goes down, it's offline," said Brett Li, head of growth at Obol Labs. (Daniel Eledut/Unsplash, modified by CoinDesk)

Um grande ponto de venda das redes blockchain é que elas são “descentralizadas”. Mas apenas alguns validadores, incluindo aqueles administrados pelo Lido, acumularam gradualmente a maior parte do poder sobre o blockchain dominante de contratos smat, o Ethereum. Uma ideia é descentralizar os próprios validadores.
