Ethereum Update Enhances Validator Efficiency and Reduces Network Bandwidth

According to Odaily, Ethereum core developer timbeiko.eth announced on the X platform that the upcoming Pectra update will introduce features to improve the effective balance of validators for stakers. This development allows smaller operators to directly enhance their staking value, while larger operators can consolidate validators to reduce bandwidth usage in the peer-to-peer network. Additionally, the update eliminates the pre-merge proof-of-work follow distance, shortens the delay in processing validator deposits, and introduces execution layer-triggered withdrawals, thereby establishing a more trustless staking structure.
