All About Merge Ethereum
https://www.pkbmcelahcahaya.edu.eu.org - Increasing merge is Ethereum 's long-awaited migration from the current proof-of-work consensus mechanism to a proof-of-stake system. The merger actually occurs in a two-step process, which is named boosting Bellatrix and Paris.
Citing Coinbase , merge is officially started by Bellatrix, taking place on September 6, 2022 at 11:34:47 UTC. Bellatrix is a network upgrade at the consensus layer.
Meningkatkan merge merupakan migrasi Ethereum yang telah lama ditunggu-tunggu dari mekanisme konsensus proof of work saat ini ke sistem proof of stake. Merge sebenarnya terjadi dalam proses dua langkah, yang diberi nama meningkatkan Bellatrix dan Paris. Mengutip Coinbase, merge secara resmi dimulai oleh Bellatrix, yang berlangsung pada 6 September 2022 pukul 11:34:47 UTC. Bellatrix adalah peningkatan jaringan pada lapisan konsensus.
Setelah selesai, Beacon Chain yang sudah berjalan akan mengambil alih proses validasi transaksi baru melalui proof of stake dan model proof of work warisan Ethereum akan ditangguhkan secara permanen.
Bellatrix will be followed up by Paris, who will be the execution layer that will transition Ethereum from proof of work to proof of stake. Paris will be triggered by a certain total difficulty threshold, called the terminal total difficulty (TTD), which makes the Paris TBD exact date because it relies heavily on the proof of work hash rate.
TTD is the required total difficulty threshold of the last block mined on Ethereum. In other words, TTD represents a fixed amount of hash remaining to be mined until the proof of stake is officially taken over.
What happens after the merge?
Upon completion, the existing Beacon Chain will take over the process of validating new transactions via proof of stake and Ethereum's legacy proof of work model will be permanently suspended.
To date, validators have staked over 13 million ETH on Beacon Chain. As the mainnet (the main network of the Ethereum blockchain) is merged with the Beacon Chain, Ethereum's full transaction history, including every transaction, smart contract, and balance since July 2015, will also be merged.
Why are Mergers Important?
The merger was six years in the making and is considered by many to be a milestone in cryptocurrency history due to its material potential and philosophical implications. This milestone could also boost market confidence and inject much-needed optimism, after months of market volatility due to, among other things, inflation and rising interest rates.
As one commenter put it, the Ethereum merge will prove a decentralized and permissionless network can operate in an energy efficient manner. Also, merging like this is a very rare event in crypto, and probably never will happen again.
How will merge affect ETH?
The short answer is not much. Mergers are expected to be and should be seamless from a user point of view.
“Coinbase will be temporarily halting some deposits and withdrawals as a precaution, specifically the new Ethereum (ETH), ERC-20, Polygon (MATIC), Optimism (OP), PWETH, PUSDC and PMATIC tokens, but we don't expect any other network or currencies that will be affected,” quoted from Coinbase, Thursday (15/9/2022).
However, for those who stake their ETH, the balance will not be opened nor will it be available for trading or transfer immediately after the merge.
