Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin revealed that the Foundation has successfully staked 72,000 ETH through the simplified DVT-lite technology, aiming to lower institutional staking barriers and streamline the distributed validation process. The solution strikes a balance between stability and operational complexity, allowing multiple nodes to share validation keys and reduce downtime risk. The staking plan is expected to be completed by March 19, further enhancing the decentralization of the Ethereum network.
