The Eth2 launch method began in November 2020. The network’s switch to proof-of-stake is predicted to form ETH a deflationary quality.
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has outlined his vision for a “plausible roadmap” for Eth2, presenting a future wherever the biggest smart-contract platform will increase its scalability whereas meeting high standards for trustlessness and censorship resistance. In a weekday post titled “Endgame,” Buterin bestowed an idea experiment for the way the common massive blockchain — outlined by terribly high block frequency, high block size and thousands of transactions per second — will still be thought of sufficiently trustless and censorship-resistant. the plain trade-off for this level of scalability is that the centralization of block production. Buterin’s solutions, as presented within the diary post, don't address the centralization issue, however still offer a roadmap for implementation.
With respect to the solutions, Buterin steered “a second tier of staking, with low resource needs,” to hold out distributed block validation; “introduce either fraud-proof or ZK-SNARKS to let users directly (and cheaply) check block validity” directly; and “introduce data availability sampling to let users check block handiness [and cheaply] add secondary transaction channels to forestall censorship.”
With these updates, “We get a chain wherever block production continues to be centralized, however block validation is trustless and extremely decentralized, and specialized anti-censorship magic prevents the block producers from censoring,” Buterin explained.
