Ethereum price recovery begins, on track for ETH2.0
As Ethereum inches closer to the “merge” or the transition from Proof-of-Work (PoW) to Proof-of-Stake (POS), the altcoin has started its recovery. Vitalik Buterin, the founder of the Ethereum network recently spoke at a conference in Buenos Aires.
Buterin spoke about the growing Argentinian Ethereum community and addressed the need of blockchain technology in the country. He commented on the efficiency of PoS. The founder of Ethereum shared his views on decentralization.
The founder is of the opinion that Ethereum has become further decentralized over time. Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) have finally started emerging and Buterin explained the roadmap in five words- verge, purge, surge, splurge and the merge.
Based on data from crypto intelligence platform IntoTheBlock, over 86% of the addresses holding Ethereum are currently profitable.
