🔲The Merge thread.
In 2022, is planned one of the most important moments for Ethereum: the Merge.
The Beacon Chain will merge into the Mainnet.
And we complain about Git conflicts.
Ethereum enthusiasts are waiting for it as Marvel fans were waiting for "Avenger Endgame".

What is the Merge?
The Mainnet currently works with the proof-of-work consensus.
The Beacon Chain, already shipped in 2020, runs in parallel using proof-of-stake.
The MERGE is when these two systems will collapse in a single one.

Merging with Mainnet
The Mainnet will:
- merge with the Beacon Chain
- become its own shard, and start using proof-of-stake
- run smart contracts (with history and state) into the proof-of-stake system.
The transition will (hopefully) be small for all the users.

After the merge
Goal: Replace proof-of-work with proof-of-stake (more sustainable).
A cleanup phase is expected after the merge.
This could slow the release of other features.
Ethereum will be one step closer to achieving its vision to be:
- full scale
- secure
- sustainable

When is the Merge Happening?
This upgrade is the official switch to proof-of-stake consensus.
This eliminates the need for energy-intensive mining,
The network will be secure using staked ether.
This is planned for Q2 2022
