Ethereum (ETH) has taken another step towards merging as the current Ethereum mainnet “merges” with the Beacon Chain Proof of Stake (PoS) system-the last before switching to PoS mining. The algorithm is published as a configuration of Kiln, which is a public test net.
“The setting of the kiln test net is completed.” Said Ethereum FoundationParis Tosh Jayanti. He added that a long blog post with details and links would follow, adding:
“The beacon chain will occur at 14:00 UTC on Friday. [proof-of-work, PoW] The chain has already started and the PoW phase is expected to last for about a week. Deploy your smart contract now and see what happens before and after the merge! “
With an update in late January, Ethereum’s core developer Tim Beiko, launched in late 2021, is a “long-lived public testnet” aimed at application developers gaining post-merging knowledge. After testing the deployment at Kintsugi, Kiln said it was going to go live. Ethereum environment.
“The next version of the kiln will be a dress rehearsal before the existing testnet is migrated,” Baiko said at the time, and if no major problems were found, the kiln would be “the last before forking the existing testnet.” It will be a new test net for. ” “”
Meanwhile, to ensure network security and smooth migration, developers are asking the community to test the kiln mainnet and help them find potential problems.
Also developer Marius van der Wijden share The kiln has been “spinned up” and is the test time before the merge on this testnet, set in the middle of next week to provide information on how users can participate.
“Let me say this as clearly as possible. The kiln is a big milestone in Ethereum Marge.” Said Superphiz describes him as an “Ethereum BeaconChain Community Health Consultant” in his Twitter career.
Beiko added that the data collected through this test can affect the date of the merge.
At 10:20 UTC, ETH is trading at US $ 2,600. It has decreased by 5% in one day and 12% in one week.
