After years of promises, Ethereum is finally about to merge in September! It's moving from a proof of work model to proof of stake, which is a huge deal for the crypto community. But what does this actually mean and why is it important?
In this ep we break down the Ethereum merge so its easy to understand. We dive into proof of work vs proof of stake (and what that means), the new Beacon Chain the network is moving over to and the hopefully positive environmental impact.
We also take a look at the potential cons and misconceptions, like changes to gas fees and how much money you need to be a validator rather than a miner.
Elsewhere in the episode we discuss Tiffany & Co getting into the NFT game and the Sports Chain crypto scam that has been plaguing Sri Lanka.Â
