Ethereum Developers Push Decentralized Data Efficiency with Rateless Coding

Ethereum developers propose using Random Linear Network Coding (RLNC) for decentralized data availability sampling, citing increased efficiency and decentralization benefits. RLNC reduces false negative probability to q^{-s}, where q is a field cardinality, allowing for on-demand sampling. The approach could aid decentralizing custody and reduce repair costs compared to existing methods like Celestia or PeerDAS.
