Correct me if I'm wrong, but you would only need greater than 2/3 of the amount of Ether currently staked, not 2/3 of the total amount of Ether. The amount of staked Ether probably would be less than 10% of the total issued Ether, maybe much less as staking rewards go down.
- tsujp 6y agoCorrect it is of the staked Ether not total supply.

For Bitcoin consensus is mining. For the beacon Ethereum chain consensus is staking, therefore only staking Ether is relevant.
