How to mitigate liquid staking derivatives threatening Ethereum’s decentralization
Episode 99 of Season 5 of The Scoop was recorded with The Block’s Frank Chaparro and Ethereum decentralized staking advocate Superphiz.
- Superphiz explains how liquid staking derivatives could impact Ethereum’s credible neutrality.
Superphiz is a long-time Ethereum community member and a became a vocal advocate for staking decentralization following the Ethereum ‘Merge’ to a proof-of-stake consensus mechanism last year.
In this episode of The Scoop, Superphiz unpacks how Ethereum’s merge to proof-of-stake has caused liquid staking derivatives to pose a potential threat to Ethereum’s credible neutrality, as well as the best pathways to mitigate the potential for staking centralization.
