Going to cast all my stupid questions in this thread as they come up 🧵👇

> Proof of Stake — Another approach is to follow Ethereum’s staking model. Anyone can run a Hub by staking ETH on a contract 

I think PoA would be better than this — this turns validator elections into an ETH bridging / event messaging problem, which is arguably worse

Give examples where the validator set is a decent size (10+) and are controlled by reasonably distinct entities?

Tendermint requires 100 validators iirc to work

You can run Tendermint on way fewer validators

~100 is a schelling point for a comfortable upper limit if you want to keep block times at 5-6 seconds, but with optimizations, can get up to ~150
