Buterin Proposes 'Rainbow Staking' to Reform Ethereum Rewards Distribution

• Vitalik Buterin introduced "Rainbow Staking," a new Ethereum staking concept with a dual-pronged mechanism to impact reward distribution

• It aims to optimize rewards between "heavy services" that play a vital role, and "light services" that increase diversity and censorship resistance

• Rainbow Staking gives more value to solo stakers, recognizing them as crucial for network resilience during failures

• The goal is to shift from a competitive singular resource battle to a more equitable and inclusive economic model

• Responses are mixed - some welcome it as more decentralized, while others criticize complexity and unpredictable impacts
