Ethereum: This will give ‘more time for the Merge to stay live longer’
Christine Kim, Researcher at Galaxy Digital, recently shared a thread on Twitter updating the community on the developments on the Ethereum blockchain. During their latest meeting, Ethereum core developers, according to Kim, discussed the now-delayed Merge and the shadow forks.
Kim proceeded with the roadmap of the Ethereum blockchain. The 4th Goerli shadow fork is set to proceed this Tuesday. On the contrary, the 2nd mainnet shadow fork is scheduled for launch the following Saturday, after the failure of the 1st last week. The gaps were identified by Hyperledger Besu, an open source Ethereum client. They are expected to provide inputs on the scheduled launch to paper all the cracks.
Tim Beiko, an Ethereum core developer, also updated the community about another major issue. Tweeting about the issue of the latest valid hash, he commented,
