This document represents the specification for Phase 0 of Ethereum 2.0 – The Beacon Chain.
At the core of Ethereum 2.0 is a system chain called the “beacon chain”. The beacon chain stores and manages the registry of validators. In the initial deployment phases of Ethereum 2.0, the only mechanism to become a validator is to make a one-way ETH transaction to a deposit contract on Ethereum 1.0. Activation as a validator happens when Ethereum 1.0 deposit receipts are processed by the beacon chain, the activation balance is reached, and a queuing process is completed. Exit is either voluntary or done forcibly as a penalty for misbehavior. The primary source of load on the beacon chain is “attestations”. Attestations are simultaneously availability votes for a shard block (Phase 1) and proof-of-stake votes for a beacon block (Phase 0).
Code snippets appearing in this style
are to be interpreted as Python 3 code.
We define the following Python custom types for type hinting and readability:

The INACTIVITY_PENALTY_QUOTIENT
equals INVERSE_SQRT_E_DROP_TIME**2
where INVERSE_SQRT_E_DROP_TIME := 2**13
epochs (about 36 days) is the time it takes the inactivity penalty to reduce the balance of non-participating validators to about 1/sqrt(e) ~= 60.6%
. Indeed, the balance retained by offline validators after n
epochs is about (1 - 1/INACTIVITY_PENALTY_QUOTIENT)**(n**2/2)
; so after INVERSE_SQRT_E_DROP_TIME
epochs, it is roughly (1 - 1/INACTIVITY_PENALTY_QUOTIENT)**(INACTIVITY_PENALTY_QUOTIENT/2) ~= 1/sqrt(e)
. Note this value will be upgraded to 2**24
after Phase 0 mainnet stabilizes to provide a faster recovery in the event of an inactivity leak.
The PROPORTIONAL_SLASHING_MULTIPLIER
is set to 1
at initial mainnet launch, resulting in one-third of the minimum accountable safety margin in the event of a finality attack. After Phase 0 mainnet stablizes, this value will be upgraded to 3
to provide the maximal minimum accountable safety margin.

deposits
