The total amount of Ethereum (ETH) staked on the Ethereum 2.0 deposit contract has exceeded four million tokens, worth more than $11 billion at current prices, according to crypto metrics platform CryptoQuant.
Ethereum 2.0 is an ambitious multi-year upgrade plan that aims to switch the Ethereum blockchain from its current proof-of-work (PoW) consensus algorithm to a proof-of-stake (PoS) one. This will significantly reduce the network’s energy consumption and hardware requirements, potentially resulting in lower transaction fees (which are currently skyrocketing) and higher throughput.
The long-awaited Ethereum 2.0 upgrade is near. The multi-phased upgrade aims to improve the Ethereum network’s scalability and security through several changes to the network’s infrastructure—most notably, the switch from a proof-of-work (PoW) consensus mechanism to a proof-of-stake (PoS) model. What is Ethereum 2.0? Ethereum 2.0, also known as Eth2 or “Serenity,” is an upgrade to the Ethereum blockchain. The upgrade aims to enhance the speed, efficiency, and scalability of the Ethereum network...
Currently, ETH 2.0 is in the first stage of deployment, dubbed “Phase 0.” To initially launch it at the end of 2020, the network required over 16,000 validators—users running the software—and 500,000 ETH deposited. Initially, community members were seemingly reluctant to lock up their coins; the minimum threshold was crossed almost at the last moment before the deadline.
Since then, however, inflows of ETH into the Ethereum 2.0 deposit contract have grown considerably. By December 4 last year, users had locked up a total of one million ETH in the 2.0 contract—twice that required for the beacon chain’s launch. That figure doubled again just 20 days later, reaching two million ETH on December 24.
The ongoing crypto price rally has given a significant boost to the dollar value of staked ETH. In December, Ethereum traded at around $600 per token, but it's surged to over $2,700 since then, according to crypto metrics platform CoinGecko.
Over five months after Google Cloud announced a partnership with CME Group, Rich Widmann, the tech giant’s head of Web3 strategy, confirmed Tuesday that the company's Universal Ledger is indeed a layer-1 blockchain. "All this talk of layer-1 blockchains has brought Google's own layer-1 into focus," Widmann wrote on LinkedIn. "If you're building a layer-1, it has to be differentiated." Widmann's statement follows CME Group's March 25 announcement that it has completed the first phase of integrati...
Apple has officially set its fall keynote for September 9 at the Steve Jobs Theater in Cupertino, and the speculation machine is already running at full tilt. As ever, the event invite itself says nothing, but the Apple gossip sites are pretty much in alignment about what’s coming. Here’s a rundown of the most credible chatter—and the wilder claims that may or may not pan out. The Star of the Show: iPhone 17 (and a super-slim “Air” model) The safest bet, according to tech industry sites (and Re...
Your triple steak, double rice, extra queso monster is now cleared for takeoff. Well, at least in one Texas town: Chipotle just announced that it’s teaming with Zipline, an autonomous drone delivery company, to bring digital orders straight to customers’ homes in the Dallas area. The pilot program, “Zipotle,” kicks off this week with a small group of early access users before a wider rollout in the coming weeks. Customers in Rowlett, Texas can order Chipotle through the Zipline app. Once the foo...
