Get ahead of the curve with the latest insights, trends, and analysis in the tech world.
\*Disclaimer: None of this is meant as a slight against any client in particular. There is a high likelihood that each client and possibly even the specification has its own oversights and bugs. Eth2 is a complicated protocol, and the people implementing it are only human. The point of this...

Ethereum can be simple enough to understand from a bird's-eye view: Decentralized applications powered by the same sort of crypto-economic guarantees that underpin Bitcoin. But once you've zoomed in to, say, a street-level view, things get complicated rapidly. Even assuming one has a strong grasp on proof-of-work, it's not...
After months of hard work from the eth2 research team, along with Consensys and DeepWork Studio, we're happy to announce the release of the eth2 validator launchpad (testnet version). We're releasing it now so that you can keep track of, and make deposits into, the upcoming Medalla multi-client testnet....

Today, we'll cover some significant deposit contract news, and big steps toward implementation...
Here it is. Virtual WWDC is about to start, and we're all talking about⦠App Store guidelines?
I've been thinking recently about post-apocalyptic wastelands. Specifically, about this scene from Mad Max: Fury Road, when the main characters have just escaped the first wave of pursuit, and are staying ahead of their would-be captors. They need to keep moving, but still need to do maintenance on the centerpiece...
