Ethereum 2.0 Medalla
Ethereum 2.0, also called Eth2 or ‘Serenity’, is the next upgrade to the Ethereum blockchain. Ethereum 2.0 will be released in multiple “Phases†starting in 2020 with Phase 0. Each phase will improve the functionality and performance of Ethereum in different ways. Eth 2.0 encapsulates years of research to switch the current Proof-of-Work (PoW) Ethereum network to a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus algorithm. The expected launch later this year will be phase 0 of a multiyear overhaul.
Medalla, "the official public multi-client testnet" for the first phase of Ethereum 2.0, has gone live. It’s main aim is to be the final test prior to the mainnet launch of the Eth2.0. It will assess how Eth2.0 will work with the different clients. There will be 5 clients running at the genesis of the Medalla testnet :
- Teku
- Nimbus
- Prysm
- Lighthouse
- Lodestar
