Yahoo Finance published this video item, entitled “The Ethereum Merge with Dankrad Feist” – below is their description.
This segment originally aired on August 3, 2022.
On this week’s show, our host Brian McGleenon is joined by Dankrad Feist, a core researcher at the Ethereum Foundation. This episode forecasts the disruptive impact of the upcoming Ethereum ‘merge’ on the cryptocurrency ecosystem.
We look at the impact on the price of Ethereum’s native cryptocurrency, ether, which will become a deflationary token following the merge. The world’s second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap will make a full transition from the high energy intensive ‘proof of work’ method of validating transactions on the blockchain to a ‘proof of stake’ way of validation, that will only use a fraction of the energy.
