The Block: Everything you need to know about what’s coming for Ethereum 2.0 in 2020
Quick Take
2020 will see the roll-out of the first phase of Eth2 – dubbed Phase 0 – possibly as early as late Q2
Eth2 is a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) version of the current Ethereum mainnet and introduces the concept of sharding to increase the network’s throughput
According to Vitalik Buterin, introducing PoS will lead to over 10 million more ETH being locked into the protocol once the two networks are integrated
There are a few mechanisms in place – including an anti-correlation penalty system – to deter stake concentration, although the risk is still present.
