More than 120 thousand Ethereum wallets are ready to participate in stacking a new version of the network

Market participants expect the launch of a new version of the Ethereum network, which is scheduled for early fall of this year. Currently, the number of wallets that store more than 32 ETH has increased to 120 thousand. That is how many coins are necessary for a successful start of a validator node.

It is worth noting that investors still hope that the launch will take place in September after several transfers already due to errors in introducing the multi-client option. The new Ethereum 2.0 network will replace the current Proof-of-Work protocol with Proof-of-Stake and allow miners to receive rewards for blocking part of their assets in their account in favor of the validation mechanism.

Recall, the developers had problems launching the Berlin fork testnet due to the need to upgrade components (it is the primary condition for launching the main network).
