Vitalik Buterin: Opposes Overloading External Applications and Protocols on Ethereum Consensus.
On May 22, BlockBeats reported that Vitalik Buterin, co-founder of Ethereum, published an article titled "Don't Overload Ethereum's Consensus". The article points out the high risks of overloading external applications and protocols onto Ethereum's consensus, which can cause damage to the ecosystem. While reusing validation nodes for other purposes, such as ultimate oracles and re-staking protocols represented by EigenLayer, is low-risk, attempting to use Ethereum's social consensus to achieve the application's own goals is high-risk and should be resisted.
Vitalik Buterin emphasizes the importance of adhering to blockchain minimalism and being wary of application-layer projects expanding the "scope" of blockchain consensus beyond validating the core Ethereum protocol rules.
