Ethereum Merge Now Less Than 10 Hours Away
Get ready, ETH fans... The much anticipated Ethereum "merge" - its software upgrade from proof of work mining to a proof of stake validation system - is now just hours away.
According to the countdown over on Google, the Ethereum Merge is now less than 10 hours away.
Exciting times for ETH enthusiasts and the broader crypto community. I interviewed Justin Giefer earlier today on the podcast (listen below for free) about the upcoming Merge, and what it could mean for the future of the Ethereum network.
He brought up some great sobering counterpoints to the positivity and excitement in the Ethereum community around this transition.
We also chatted the recent seizure of Pillow Guy’s phone by the FBI, and other stories in this week’s news.
