Vitalik Buterin Proposes Partially Stateless Nodes for Ethereum Scaling
- Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin proposed partially stateless nodes on May 19 to improve scalability and ease full node operation.
- This proposal arose from concerns that increasing the layer 1 gas limit by up to 100 times hinders running full nodes and risks network security.
- Buterin’s roadmap includes short-term priorities like EIP-4444 to limit nodes' historical data storage to 36 days and medium-term stateless verification reducing storage needs by about 50%.
- Buterin emphasized that operating a full node enables individuals to interact with the blockchain in a manner that is private, resistant to censorship, and secure, underscoring the crucial role of decentralization.
- The proposed solutions aim to enhance Ethereum's performance and privacy while preserving node usability, addressing risks from RPC provider centralization and complex node requirements.

Vitalik Buterin Proposes Updates to Ethereum’s Scaling Strategy - WorldNL Magazine
Vitalik Buterin has suggested changes to Ethereum’s scaling plan that focus on making it easier to run local nodes while still supporting Layer 1 (L1) scaling. His proposals come in response to concerns that raising the L1 gas limit could make it more difficult for users to run full nodes. Partially Stateless Nodes In a post on Ethresear.ch, the Ethereum co-founder argues that maintaining the ability for users to function their own nodes can be …

Ethereum Price & EIP-4444 Update
Ethereum dips 3.71% to $2,412.98 amid heightened trading volume. Analyst signals potential breakout, eyes $2,860 as target if $2,700 clears. Vitalik Buterin’s EIP-4444 aims to revolutionize blockchain scalability. The world’s second-largest cryptocurrency by capitalization, Ethereum, is trading at $2,412.98 as it drops 3.71% over the last 24 hours. Owing to the decline notwithstanding, optimism in the markets is still high as is evident from a 1…
LATEST: Vitalik Buterin Introduces Stateless Nodes to Enhance Ethereum Network Scalability
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has proposed a new way to protect user freedom and privacy on the blockchain as it scales. On May 19 Buterin introduced a concept called “partially stateless nodes” to make running Ethereum nodes easier and more private for regular users. This new type of node allows users to validate blocks without storing the full blockchain. Instead of keeping everything they can choose to store only the parts that matter t…
