Obol Network - How DVT helps decentralize Ethereum and incentivize collectivism

I spoke to Oisín Kyne, co-founder and CTO of Obol Network,  an ecosystem for trust minimized Ethereum staking that enables people to create, test, run and coordinate distributed validators. Distributed Validator Technology (DVT) enables the duties of an Ethereum validator to be performed across a cluster of nodes in order to improve resilience as compared to running a validator on a single node.

During the discussion we spoke about how DVT works, its implications for community funding, and  how it supports the decentralization of Ethereum. DVT is one of the most exciting technologies in my view for allowing a form of online collectivism that otherwise would be difficult to do on Ethereum.
