Ethereum 2.0 client implementation
Significant performance improvements across the board + additional protection against accidental slashings: Rewards are higher, Sync speed is 50% faster, and CPU utilization has more than halved...

Running your own validator is not as scary as you may think.
Announcing the start of a multi-vendor security assessment of the Nimbus Beacon Chain codebase. This assessment start is the result of the wonderful response we received from the initial Request for Proposal (RfP) sent out earlier this year.
