Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin suggested penalizing validators proportionally to the deviation from their average failure rate.
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has proposed a technique to incentivize better decentralization of Ethereum by penalizing correlated failures among validators.
Buterin posted his thoughts on March 27 regarding supporting decentralized staking “through more anti-correlation incentives” to the Ethereum Research forum.
He suggested if multiple validators controlled by the same actor fail together, they would receive a higher penalty than if they failed independently.
