I have been a Blockchain investor for the last 3 years and I have not seen a SINGLE interview with Charles that actually asks him something new outside of "Hey ETH is pretty neat isn't it". Thank you so much for asking all the RIGHT questions with Charles. I haven't seen him this excited for an interview in a long time.,(reply>), ok noob,(reply>), @Crypto Caesar you can run a validator by yourself with 32 ether or come together in a pool (less than 32). Each person will require to run an Eth 2 node. This is inherently more decentralised than cardano. Cardano staking pools can get as big they like while Ethereum 2 you are punish for huge pools and like I said delegation to pools are being voted on. Of course, the big guys will always win. Most Ada are currently being stake in pools (without each staker controlling a validator) which leads to centralisation. The validator are controlled by the pools. How are pool operator not centralised?<br><br>Ada, most decentralised huh? In the space? Lol<br>Buddy, eth 2 hasn't been fully out yet; only the beacon chain is live and there is 168k validator today (mainnet . beaconcha . in | remove space to visit source). How much do cardano has 2k? Lol. <br><br>And yes, ik Ethereum currently uses pow which are in pools but Eth still has more nodes than cardano currently.,(reply>), @Crypto Caesar chains like polkadot went with slashing mechanism for any malicious validator. While an attack is low it's still possible.<br>Algorand went with randomly assigning it's delegation. The AVG validator benefits.<br>The best approach is to remove delegation which only one chain does and that is the beacon chain. Thus, innovative!,(reply>), @Crypto Caesar the reasons why you have to lock up your stake is so a malicious user cannot attack (while difficult but possible)the network without a punishment. Ada they will get their stake but loose access to future rewards but can then join a different pool to regain access. On Eth, you will get your shit slash. This is why Ethereum is more secure. Eth discourage malicious validator by slashing.  Cardano doesn't have any punishment for malicious validators.<br><br>Ethereum after bitcoin is the most decentralised and secure; when Eth 2 comes out anyone with a laptop or phone can run a validator.<br>You don't need 32 Eth, you can run a validator with less than 1 Eth.<br>Cardano doesn't even have true POS, they are using dPOS. Majority of Ada holders have their stake delicated to a pool while someone else is running the validator. In this way pools will become centralised.<br>What's stopping a big company, govt to bribe delegation to their pool? If u own a CEXs or know ton of whales u basically win. The average validator has no chance.<br>Eth2 covers both the big and little guys.,(reply>), @Crypto Caesar Ethereum is not trying to catch up, they have been researching about POS like the next day Eth was launched. <br>POS on Eth will be superior than what cardano has. There is no motivation to support the chain in cardano. You will only loose future stake reward.  What's stopping someone from attacking the network withdraw their stake and jump out without facing consequences? <br><br>And similar languages support can be added to Eth as it would to cardano. One can easily build a compiler to compile their prefer language to byte code.
