Golden Finance reported that Anza has proposed two measures to implement a penalty mechanism (slashing) in the network, primarily targeting so-called 'duplicate blocks' to penalize validators, which refers to the situation where the same block is created twice. Anza has not yet decided on the specific economic details of the penalty mechanism, but the author of SIMD suggested destroying (or functionally abolishing) the punished staked tokens. Anza's Ashwin Sekar also proposed a parabolic penalty curve: if 5% of a validator's staked tokens violate the rules, then 1% of their staked tokens will be destroyed; while if 33% of the staked tokens violate the rules, all staked tokens will be penalized. Sekar explained in a validator discussion that Ethereum's penalty curve is linear. Sekar also stated that this penalty proposal is still in its early stages, and such an update will not be released until at least the end of summer 2025.
