# Phase 0 -- Honest Validator
|
|
|
|
This is an accompanying document to [Phase 0 -- The Beacon Chain](./beacon-chain.md), which describes the expected actions of a "validator" participating in the Ethereum proof-of-stake protocol.

## Introduction
|
|
|
|
This document represents the changes to be made in the code of an "honest validator" to implement Deneb.
|
|
|
|
## Beacon chain responsibilities
|
|
|
|
### Attestation aggregation
|
|
|
|
#### Aggregation selection
|
|
|
|
Aggregator selection is now balance based. `state` is the `BeaconState` at the previous epoch of `slot` to allow lookahead.
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
def is_aggregator(state: BeaconState, slot: Slot, index: CommitteeIndex,
|
|
slot_signature: BLSSignature, validator: ValidatorIndex) -> bool:
|
|
committee = get_beacon_committee(state, slot, index)
|
|
committee_balance = get_total_balance(state, set(committee))
|
|
balance = state.balances[validator]
|
|
modulo = max(1, committee_balance // balance // TARGET_AGGREGATORS_PER_COMMITTEE)
|
|
return bytes_to_uint64(hash(slot_signature)[0:8]) % modulo == 0
|
|
```
