## 以太坊基金会通过“DVT-lite”简化机构质押以太坊联合创始人Vitalik Buterin透露，以太坊基金会已于二月成功质押了72,000个以太币，使用了简化的分布式验证技术（DVT-lite）。该技术旨在使以太坊质押对机构来说实现“一键”设置。与容易因停机时间受到惩罚的传统单人质押，以及复杂的完整DVT（将密钥分割到多台计算机上）不同，DVT-lite在多台机器上使用相同的密钥，确保快速故障转移并最大程度地降低风险。 Buterin认为，简化质押基础设施对于去中心化至关重要，可以反驳质押需要专业知识的观点。他设想使用Docker容器等自动化设置来简化流程。基金会质押的以太币目前在验证人队列中，计划于3月19日激活。尽管当前市场状况，以太币质押的需求依然强劲，有320万ETH正在等待质押，已有3750万ETH已质押，占总供应量的31%。

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin said the Ethereum Foundation used simplified distributed validator technology, or “DVT-lite,” to stake 72,000 Ether in February.

“My hope for this project is that in the process, we can make it maximally easy and one-click to do distributed staking for institutions,” said Buterin on X on Monday.

Buterin explained that with DVT-lite, users can “choose which computers run their nodes, make a config file where they all have the same key, and then from there everything gets set up automatically.”

DVT-lite is a simplified form of distributed validator technology tailored for easier deployment, especially in institutional or semi-professional Ethereum staking setups.

In regular solo staking, everything is run on one computer, which can result in “slashing” or penalties if it crashes, gets hacked, or loses internet. Full DVT splits the secret keys across many computers that constantly communicate, which is very secure, but complicated to set up.

DVT-lite uses the same validator key on several computers, so if one computer dies, another quickly takes over, resulting in almost no downtime and very low risk of penalties.

The Ethereum Foundation started its staking program using the technology in late February, and the assets are currently sitting in the validator entry queue waiting to be staked on March 19.

“One-click” staking for institutions

Buterin said that the idea that running infrastructure is this “scary complicated thing” where each person participating must be a professional is “awful and anti-decentralization, and we must attack it directly.”

He added that there should be a “Docker container” or “Nix image” or similar, which has “one click” or command line per node that automates the process of staking.

Buterin said he plans to use DVT-lite soon and hopes more institutions holding ETH can stake in this way.

“We want the authority over staking nodes to be highly distributed, and the first step to doing this is to make it easy.”

In January, he suggested “native DVT” network integration, which would allow stakers to “stake without fully relying on one single node.”

Big demand for staking despite low prices

There is still a huge demand for Ether staking despite its bear market price action.

There are currently 3.2 million ETH in the validator entry queue, with a 55-day wait, and just 29,000 in the exit queue with a 12-hour wait, according to ValidatorQueue.

There are currently 37.5 million ETH staked, worth roughly around $76.5 billion at current prices and representing 31% of the total supply.
