Here is a new RIG Open Problem on the specification of a Multiplicity gadget in the context of Ethereum’s Gasper consensus. Good problem for a consensus researcher interested in censorship-resistance!

Is your LST safe?

Not sure what you mean by “at proposer level”? Many proposers making one block each, and one of them getting selected to propose the block?

How does this compare to multiplicity at the proposer level? I understand it would add a lot of overhead to consensus, but the benefits seem large.

Hello Mr Pintail! Yes this is a downside I see, but with the ability to do the conditional tipping logic and potentially rewarding cleverly the committee participating in the gadget, you could expect to turn weakly-censoring behaviour into rational participants who want to censor as little as possible

What an interesting idea. This is the first time I've read about it. Intuitively it seems as though this only provides censorship resistance if at least 1/3 of nodes are non-censoring, so perhaps not as powerful as inclusion lists for this purpose?
