Ethereum Co-Founder Outlines Rollup Security Stages

According to Foresight News, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has outlined a three-stage security framework for Ethereum Rollups. In his recent publication, Buterin described the stages as follows: Stage 0 involves a security council with the authority to completely override the proof system, resulting in centralized control. Stage 1 requires the agreement of six out of eight members to intervene, with external member thresholds limiting intervention. Stage 2 allows intervention only in the event of verifiable errors, without arbitrary decision-making. Buterin recommends a gradual transition from Stage 0 to Stage 2 as trust in the proof system increases. He emphasizes that Stage 0 offers the lowest security and should not be maintained for extended periods. Rollups should ideally start at Stage 1, with a focus on auditing and enhancing the maturity of the proof system.
