This forum is for usage with ethers.js, so you may ask general questions like these on Ethereum StackExchange or any other appropriate place you could find. Btw after the merge event, new blocks on the blockchain will be mined (or rather confirmed/authored) by the people who are running a Validator node and have staked ETH on it (so just not someone who has ETH in their wallet, staking + running the node is important). Read more about that here. Also there are more than 200K eth validators who each have staked at least 32 ETH. Decentralisation is a relative term, and nothing can be 100% decentralised in practice (only when everyone has equal power). But this setup sounds reasonably decentralised than any other existing blockchain. |

Will the majority of mined blocks on the Ethereum network eventually belong to those who have staked and own majority of available ETH?
