Ethereum’s Future Revolution: Exploring the Beam Chain Proposal
The Beam Chain proposal envisions a full-scale redesign of Ethereum's consensus layer (Beacon Chain) to tackle pressing scalability and security challenges
> Reducing slot duration to 4 seconds for increased block processing efficiency
> Achieved through Orbit SSF, which modifies Gasper’s committee mechanism, increases validator staking amounts, and introduces a "super committee"
> Utilizing ZK-SNARKs to enable proof-based verification instead of block re-execution, reducing validator hardware demands and boosting scalability
> Leveraging ZK technology for robust security against quantum computing threats
> Preconfirmations, such as Commit-Boost, provide faster transaction approval times as an interim solution without requiring immediate protocol changes
