The creator of the #Ethereum (ETH) cryptocurrency, Vitalik Buterin, has come up with a new method to combat the 51% attack on the blockchain of a digital asset. A member of the crypto community, known under the pseudonym Superphiz.eth, expressed concern for the security of the #ETH network after the implementation of The Merge update, which provides for the transition to the #PoS consensus protocol. He believes that not all Ethereum staking pools will agree to limit the number of validators in order not to lose profit. In response to this message, #Buterin suggested using an economic approach to reduce the risk of a 51% attack on the #blockchain. "We need to allow top betting pools to increase their rates. For example, if the pool accounts for more than 15% of validators, then it should increase the commission for using its service until the number of validators drops below 15% of the total," Vitalik said. It is obvious that users will choose pools with a low commission, so in the event of an increase in the service fee, stake #holders will begin to switch to other platforms. After the pool controls less than 15% of the network validators, it will be able to reduce the #commission to a standard value.
