Ethereum 2.0 delays thread

[Reid]

Misheard. How could he miss that important question?
We all want the date so I think he didn't really misheard it.

He could've just used the Covid19 pandemic as the reason behind the delay of everything.
That's more reasonable.

@Reid. It might be because the roadmap they had might have changed during the interview hehehe. It might only be bad timing hehe.

I am not defending Vitalik. I am only trying to be fair. However, yes his tweet telling everyone that he did not hear July made him appear dishonest.

it is hard to plan release of such a huge breakdown, and i would not want to criticize for each delay, but they should have better communication with ETH community, and not to promise things that are not doable from most points

Yeah, but let us also be fair to those who heard it and expecting something in just a couple of months.

I will understand if he will use the pandemic reasoning.
Looks to me like every project now is using that kind of statement which is acceptable to a lot of investors.
Who won't? We are all in the same page now.

Ethereum 2.0 delays 1201 days and counting...

Initial story 18 months after release, Ethereum will switch from POW to POS aka Ethereum 2.0
Thursday, 30 July 2015 --->  Monday, 30 January 2017 ...... Friday, 15 May 2020   blah, blah, blah...

I think they will never really know when it will be ready up until it is actually ready because that is about how the development really works, you finish almost all the products but then you find couple bugs and fixing that takes a lot of time for you and suddenly you are postponing everything another month.

So, I think there is really no deadline even in their mind right now which means there is really no need to keep asking them when it will be ready. Think about it if it will be ready anytime soon wouldn't they really put it in themselves? They will let everyone know, they will tweet about it, they will talk about it and they will basically highlight it everywhere they go. That is why I do not really think that there is a reason to push them to tell is an estimated time, if they know when it will be, they will let us know first thing.

The question is if Ethereum delievered something on time  . But, rather then seen half-working solution, I would wait for highly-secure tested new solution. Few months delay, who cares, we are creating a new form of money  .

I think this is a very bad ethereum development because the ethereum platform that I know can provide developments that are always updated and as much as possible before they are released to the public the developers have prepared what is served so it doesn't make many people wait too long and might make many people disappointed.

Be patient, it is not easy to change POW to POS, and they are still working on it, if they are Scammers then they will not do anything,
Ethereum will show that they are giants of the crypto currency platform

It makes sense if the delay is due to a pandemic because it is indeed a difficult situation in our lives and the global economy and therefore changes from the road map will be very appropriate if it is fully proceeding normally.

Do not expect too soon about the release of Ethereum 2.0 because they know that behind it all there will be success, be patient all will be beautiful in its time.

Despite that, the pandemic affected the global economy and other aspects of our daily lives, delaying 2.0 doesn't make any sense from my own point of view because everything about the project system upgrade will be carried out online. Why the delay? There must be another genuine reason.

[bbc.reporter]

It appears that Vitalik might be beginning to accustom everyone slowly on the situation before announcing of more delays.

I predict an announcement this year will be mentioning no definite date for its release.


Ethereum 2.0 will rely on temporary scaling measures for the next two years, says Vitalik Buterin.

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin said, on June 30, that the next major Ethereum upgrade will have to lean on current scaling methods for at least a couple of years, until developers finish the multi-phase project.

On Twitter, Vitalik Buterin said that ZK-rollups may become “the dominant scaling paradigm for at least a couple of years”—until the upgrade is complete.

Was Ethereum 2.0 supposed to be launched during this time of the year? It appears that they are quiet about this after hyping the launch from 3 months ago hehehe.

Was Ethereum 2.0 supposed to be launched during this time of the year?

Eth 2.0 was promised to be implemented by 30 January 2017 now 1260 days later, nothing.

[DoubleEdgeEX]

It´s better to deploy a full functional, sustainable and reliable output that a rushed one with too many coding issues. Here is a pic of Vitalik from the year 2023, after talking to the ETH developers for the 327 time : https://ibb.co/HxnSFp3

[bbc.reporter]

@DoubleEdgeEX. Will that be the Ethereum development team's statement for their Ethereum 2.0 storyboard? I predict similar hacks and theft after delays.

In any case, news update.



The initial stage of Ethereum 2.0 — dubbed Phase 0 — may not go live until the start of 2021, according to a researcher involved in the project.

Ethereum Foundation Justin Drake was asked during a Reddit Ask-Me-Anything session on Friday when the deployment of Phase 0 would begin. As previously reported, one of the main factors behind past launch delays was the multi-client approach being spearheaded by those involved in Phase 0's development.

Anyone in need of a good laugh?
"The Ethereum 2.0 beacon chain will launch in November unless we find severe bugs in clients or protocol"

[bbc.reporter]

@Tash. I predict another delay on November after this delay hehehe. The statement also said unless we find severe bugs in clients and protocol. This does not show confidence on the development of project.

I expecting a delay as well they might launch the final testnet in the coming weeks but when it comes to mainnet I think Jan 2021 is still the best bet.
TBH I don't care if decide to delay again because I am immune to their delay news lol.
