The post Vitalik Buterin Hails Ethereum’s Resilience Over Supermajority appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

Buterin stressed in a tweet that no execution client has a market share more than two thirds.  The network may be jeopardized if only one execution client reaches 66.6% market share. Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has lately brought attention to a crucial part of the network’s resilience. He called it “great news” for the Layer 1 network since the percentage of execution clients doesn’t go beyond two-thirds. In addition, the Ethereum blockchain has recently undergone significant modifications, and this announcement follows suit. Buterin stressed in a tweet that no execution client has a market share more than two thirds. That the Ethereum L1 is so strong is fantastic news. This declaration highlights the robustness of the Ether network in the face of threats that may result from a single client controlling a disproportionate amount of the market. No Domination To provide some background, the term “supermajority” describes the dangers that may arise if one client controlled the whole network. The stability and security of the network may be jeopardized if only one execution client reaches 66.6% market share. The good news for the ETH community is that no client now has more than this level, as seen in the snapshot supplied by Vitalik Buterin. No one client dominates the network, as seen by the numbers, which point to a diversified ecosystem. This helps with Layer 1 scalability and reduces the possibility of a supermajority, as shown by Vitalik Buterin. Not only that, but Ethereum is also about to get some major upgrades, including the much awaited Pectra upgrade. According to Christine Kim of Galaxy Research, the 140th All Core Developer Consensus Conference Call (ACDC) was recently convened by the EtherCast developers to discuss this upcoming improvement. A new upgrade dubbed Fulu-Osaka has been hinted to by Ethereum developers, according to…
