Title: Is a consensus client now mandatory for ETHEREUM? geth - cannot sync
Post by: ascqrwasc33 on March 15, 2024, 01:22:18 PM
Dear all,

All I intend to do is to create a few ethereum addresses and check the balance using geth.   I am not staking or doing anything else.
Do I till need a beacon? .. a consensus client?
I am unable to sync using geth - I get this warning:
Code:
Post-merge network, but no beacon client seen. Please launch one to follow the chain!

Please advise. ??? :(
