On the other hand, the developers’ network has successfully completed the launch of Ethereum 2.0 Testnet Steklo. This is the first full Proof of Stake (PoS) communication between different Ethereum clients.
Some of the participating ETH 2.0 clients included Lighthouse, Teku, Nimbus, and Prysm. Along with it, ETH 1 clients like Besu, Geth, and Netherland also participated.
This was the first time when ETH 1 and ETH 2 clients communicated with each other. It was a classic example of the emulation of the merger removes Proof of Work miners and upgrades towards the Proof-of-Stake network. The optimistic timeline for the actual merger to happen is December 1.
Moving in the direction of having a ‘stakers only’ Ethereum network will be done by changing the Remote Procedure Call (RPC). This will help to keep the Ethereum network and its processes fully intact.
