At the core of the Nimbus team’s development philosophy is a focus on building lightweight, high-performance Ethereum clients to further client diversity and network decentralisation. Achieving widespread decentralisation and the ability to trustlessly and reliably verify chain data on lightweight, end-user devices is aligned with the long-term vision for

The upcoming Nimbus execution layer (EL) client for Ethereum will offer a performant alternative for validators of all sizes, and its integration of the Nimbus Portal Network client will only amplify these benefits, making running full nodes feasible for many lightweight setups.  (Yes, those running on 2TB drives, we hear

The lightweight and performant execution layer client being developed by Nimbus will play a key role in improving the Ethereum network's decentralisation and resilience. Work on this client continues alongside the development of the consensus layer (CL) client, verified Web3 proxy, and client for the Portal Network. The

The Portal network is a content-specific distributed storage network designed explicitly for storing Ethereum data. Unlike generic distributed storage networks like Codex, IPFS, or Swarm, the Portal network can be optimized for the specific types of data it handles, improving data access and verification processes. This specificity allows nodes in

It is a little known secret that, in addition to our consensus layer (eth2) client we are building out an execution layer (eth1) client - with the objective that it should be ready for the merge. Why is this important? One topical reason is client diversity. 1/ A diverse execution-layer
