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?

your argument being that you can't just have stake to write and would need to have consensus between all write hubs to publish a block. thus, system is still prone censorship by whoever has more ETH?

why do you need a bridge? and where is this a bridge to? why can't staking just be done on OP or L1 and hubs rub those nodes to verify?

No, I'm just saying PoS using ETH in a system where ETH is not the native asset forces you to use a bridge, and now we're back at square one re: who validates the bridged events and/or assets
