Ethereum Active Validators Marked Increase Leading Up To And Following The Merge
Pagal naujausią savaitės ataskaitą nuo Stiklinis mazgas, the rate of new validators joining the network has risen in recent weeks.
A validator on the Ethereum blockchain is anyone who participates in the consensus system of the crypto. In order to become a validator, an investor has to deposit at least 32 ETH into the staking sutartis.
Although holders can stake with amounts less than that with the help of staking pools, they don’t actually become individual validators this way. The pool group as a whole acts as a singular validator entity.
The “active validators” is an indicator that measures the total number of such entities that are currently online on the chain.
