ETH 2.0 testnet is alive and running

ETH testnet is alive and running with genesis block on 18.04. at 00:00 UTC and current number of active validators approaching 18k
https://beacon.etherscan.io/

this testnet requires full deposit on 32ETH to be a validator, next step is a multi-client testnet and we need three months of stable work for the multi-client testnet to get to have ETH2.0 beacon chain launch

cheers for this, and this could be a reason for an ongoing upward momentum on ETH price

In short, this is the staking test for Ethereum right? Then we have to wait until 3 months and we'll see how it will go.

Possibly. I'm looking for the reason of its uptrend and now you have it, this might be the actual reason ETH has pumped recently. I'll hope for the success of this and gonna wait for those pools that will allow you to be part of being a validator with any amount or if not, a smaller amount than the required 32 ETH.

This test net has already exist since few months ago but it seems like people are just realizing it right now. My friend has already started to be a validator and he was trying the test net too last month. I guess ethereum will get another pump again very soon.

Good that Ethereum is showing progress with their Eth 2.0, I will need to wait for the launch of the platform before I decide on the project. With all the problem associated with the POS platform will like to see how Ethereum resolve them. 32 Ether to stake, that is like $5400 now, that is not for small investors.

[Pffrt]

I was not aware about this. So, this is the reason for ETH price recent pump. I was busy with some recent real works. This was good chance to buy some more ETH.

Is it the requirement for PoS? That's quite a big amount for single person to continue the PoS. May be it will be bad for ETH in long term.

@casperBGD thanks for sharing this news and now it makes more sense why Ethereum prices are rising, and just yesterday I had written that prices will rise further and this confirms my prediction for Ethereum. @makishart indeed people including me didn’t knew about this, and as and when you get any new updates you should share it here so we all can become aware of it.

Finally the eth migration is slowly going good. Maybe we cant experience yet the full PoS but this is a huge leap for ethereum.

Here is a tweet of some follower that take note of what we expect on the eth 2.0 test net:

Everyone must probably excited but tighten your seatbelt cause eth will accelarate soon. Staking is not bad at all, and many tokens are into it, now the number one altcoin will be seen with this method. I wanted to be a validatoe but 32eth is really heavy sack for me.

With all these improvements and upgrades that Eth developers are coming up i am very very bullish on Ethereum for next 2 years atleast and i am expecting Eth to be huge in coming years, Ethereum is soon going to become truly a revolutionary crypto product that will take the world towards blockchain and crypto adoption.

It just kinda lost the momentum and anticipation of the people and unlike back then when ETH first announce they are going to go full PoS this one just not really impactful anymore nevertheless still a good news amid the chaotic circumstance that we are facing right now and finally someone who are not really into running many complicated mining rig like me will have a chance.

There will be pools
I was reading, I found one pool called ROcket Pool (https://www.rocketpool.net/)

I dont know if they are good , legit, trusted or not... the minimum amount is 1 Ethereum to participate in the pool
Certainly looks interesting.

I haven't been following the development of Ethereum for a long time. But I still hear news about Ethereum 2.0 that hasn't been released yet.
if Testnet is successful and Ethereum 2.0 will be released, I'm sure prices will also increase, buying Ethereum prices when the correction occurs is likely to be profitable

[Kunnu]

This is going to be interesting to see after Eth 2.0 testnet how much positive impact eth may leave currently we can see a decent growth in the price of eth so we may expect something positive with eth after 2.0 mainnet hopefully there will be some beneficial occasions for eth holders and traders.

Yeap looking at the number of validator, im pretty optimistic on the whole Ethereum network when POS is implemented
It is a good thing especially for ETH HODLers
