Two core developers of Solana released the SIMD-0257 proposal, aimed at enhancing network security and validator participation
ChainCatcher news, Solana core developers Max Resnick and Ashwin Sekar jointly released the SIMD-0257 proposal, which suggests removing the voting fees on the Solana network and optimizing the incentive compatibility of timely voting points to enhance network security and validator participation.
Currently, the voting fees are used to limit the scale of validators and prevent DoS attacks. Other parts of the proposal mainly focus on preventing a potential modification behavior, where validators could review the votes of their peer validators to increase their own rewards from voting points. The proposal is still in the early stages and is not yet ready for voting.
Max was previously a core researcher at Ethereum before joining the Solana core development company Anza team.
