Ethereum Slashing Event Impacts 39 Validators; SSV Network Remains Uncompromised

A rare and significant slashing event occurred on September 10th, impacting 39 validators connected to the decentralized platform SSV Networks. This incident highlights the inherent risks associated with validator operations and underscores the need for robust infrastructure management. While SSV itself wasn’t compromised, problems related to third-party staking providers led to the penalties. The event has been attributed to a technical issue on Ankr, a liquid staking service provider. 39 validators were penalized as a result of these issues, with each facing immediate financial penalties and potential inactivity fees. 🔍https://t.co/eDv6zJRS1R.
