What is the countdown clock to mainnet?

The countdown clock to Mainnet is based on a target Terminal Total Difficulty (TTD) of 58750000000000000000 Merge of Ethereum has completed successfully! What is The Merge? The Merge represents the joining of the existing execution layer of Ethereum (the Mainnet we use today) with its new proof-of-stake consensus layer, the Beacon Chain.

What is a merge in Ethereum?

WHAT IS THE MERGE? The Merge is the next step in the evolution of Ethereum. It is an upcoming event that will see the existing execution layer merged with the recently deployed consensus layer (the Beacon Chain) — this will form a mainnet platform secured by proof-of-stake, while still maintaining the original Ethereum state.

What's new with the merge?

If you're operating a non-validating Ethereum node, the most significant change that came with The Merge was the requirement to run clients for BOTH the execution layer AND the consensus layer. The Merge was designed to have minimal impact on smart contract and dapp developers.

What happens at the point of the merge?

At the point of the Merge, the difficulty level on Ethereum's PoW network will increase to the point where mining new blocks will no longer be possible. The Merge has been a long time coming, and the Beacon Chain was first introduced in December 2020.

Risk warning: Digital asset trading is an emerging industry with bright prospects, but it also comes with huge risks as it is a new market. The risk is especially high in leveraged trading since leverage magnifies profits and amplifies risks at the same time. Please make sure you have a thorough understanding of the industry, the leveraged trading models, and the rules of trading before opening a position. Additionally, we strongly recommend that you identify your risk tolerance and only accept the risks you are willing to take. All trading involves risks, so you must be cautious when entering the market.
