Vitalik Buterin and 15 September as the estimated launch date for the Merge
Vitalik Buterin, the co-founder of Ethereum, has stated that the long-awaited Merge update on the Ethereum blockchain, which would turn it into Proof-of-Stake (PoS), will take place around 15 September 2022.
Ukupna težina terminala je postavljena na 58750000000000000000000.
To znači da ethereum PoW mreža sada ima (otprilike) fiksni broj hashova koji su ostali za rudnik.https://t.co/3um744WkxZ predviđa da će se spajanje dogoditi oko 15. septembra, iako tačan datum zavisi od hashrate-a. pic.twitter.com/9YnloTWSi1

“Ukupna poteškoća terminala je postavljena na 58750000000000000000000. To znači da Ethereum PoW mreža sada ima (otprilike) fiksni broj hashova koji su ostali za rudnik. https://bordel.wtf predicts the merge will happen around Sep 15, though the exact date depends on hashrate”.
The estimated date of 15 September is derived from the fixed hashrate number, set at 587500000000000000000000000, which, according to bordel.wtf statistics, which were reported by Buterin, is expected to fall right in mid-September.
Tim Beiko also confirms the Merge date
Buterin merely confirmed what other Ethereum developers već najavio after the latest Goerli testnet that saw a successful transition to Proof-of-Stake.
Zaista, Goerly was the final testnet after Ropsten in June and Sepolia in July, representing the one before the official launch, which is expected to take place in a month.
Tim Beiko, head of the Ethereum Foundation team, had also confirmed the update in a tweet:
58750000000000000000000

587500000000000000000000000 refers to the difficulty required to extract the last Ethereum Proof-of-Work (PoW) block, after which, the network will deactivate the PoW to switch to PoS.
Vitalik Buterin and the effects of Ethereum’s Merge update
u intervju, Buterin said that the Merge will not be “appreciated” by the market and the crypto industry until we see the real effects that represent its added value.
Buterin talked about the price of ETH + Merge, which might not turn out to be a bullish trend right away, just like the environmental and sustainability effects, which will only be visible after its full implementation.
U međuvremenu, the price of ETH touched $2,000 this past week, something that has not happened since last May 2022. At the time of writing, however, the price of ETH is $1871.
