Ethereum developers say they’re making strides behind the scenes.
In a recent Ask Me Anything session on Reddit, developers working on ETH 2.0 say that they’re hoping to launch “phase 0” of Ethereum 2.0 by July 2020. Researcher Danny Ryan writes,
“Phase 0 will certainly launch in 2020. Audits are out and testnets are getting stronger every week. I don’t see a reality in which Phase 0 does not launch in 2020.”
Ethereum 2.0 is the next major upgrade of the second-largest cryptocurrency. It promises key improvements such as increased transaction throughput and the implementation of a proof-of-stake model that allows holders of ETH to earn rewards in return for powering the network.
