Gate News: On March 10, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin posted on X stating that the Ethereum Foundation is using DVT-lite technology to stake 72,000 ETH. Vitalik expressed hope that this project would simplify institutional distributed staking and enable one-click operations—users select a computer to run a node, create a configuration file containing the same key, and then everything is automated. He emphasized that viewing infrastructure operation as complex and requiring “professionals” is anti-decentralization and must be directly broken. The ideal model should be a Docker container or Nix image, where each node can be started with one click or a command line input of the same key, nodes automatically discover each other, complete network configuration, generate distributed keys, and begin staking. Vitalik also mentioned that he plans to adopt this method soon and hopes more institutions holding ETH will stake in this way.
