Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has proposed a new initiative to integrate Distributed Validator Technology (DVT) directly into the Ethereum staking protocol. This "native DVT staking" aims to enhance network security and decentralization by allowing validators to register multiple independent keys that operate collectively as a single validator identity. The proposal ensures block proposals or validations are valid only when a set threshold of participating entities is met, reducing risks associated with single node failures. Unlike current DVT implementations that depend on external coordination, Buterin's proposal embeds the mechanism within the protocol layer. Validators with sufficient stakes can specify up to 16 keys and signing thresholds, enabling multiple nodes to function as one. This design introduces minimal delay to block production and is compatible with any signature scheme. Buterin believes this approach will simplify fault-tolerant staking management and encourage independent staking, reducing reliance on large service providers and enhancing Ethereum's decentralization. The proposal is still in the suggestion phase and awaits community feedback.
