![]() ![]() Nodes that propose blocks are only a small number of the total nodes on Ethereum. There are two types of Ethereum nodes: nodes that can propose blocks and nodes that don't. As Mainnet merged with the Beacon Chain, it also merged the entire transactional history of Ethereum. Instead, the proof-of-stake validators have adopted this role and are now responsible for processing the validity of all transactions and proposing blocks. Mining is no longer the means of producing valid blocks. The Merge represented the official switch to using the Beacon Chain as the engine of block production. After The Merge, the Beacon Chain became the consensus engine for all network data, including execution layer transactions and account balances. After extensive testing, it became time for the Beacon Chain to reach consensus on real world data. Instead, it was reaching consensus on its own state by agreeing on active validators and their account balances. The Beacon Chain was not originally processing Mainnet transactions. On December 1, 2020, the Beacon Chain was created as a separate blockchain to Mainnet, running in parallel. Throughout Ethereum's history, developers prepared for an eventual transition away from proof-of-work to proof-of-stake. This allowed the Ethereum blockchain we're all used to to come into existence in July 2015 with all its familiar features-transactions, smart contracts, accounts, etc. Proof-of-work secured Ethereum Mainnet from genesis until The Merge. This merged the new, more efficient engine into the existing ship enabling it to put in some serious lightyears and take on the universe. After significant testing, it became time to hot-swap the new engine for the old one mid-flight. With the Beacon Chain, the community built a new engine and a hardened hull. Imagine Ethereum is a spaceship that launched before it was quite ready for an interstellar voyage. The Merge was when these two systems finally came together, and proof-of-work was permanently replaced by proof-of-stake. Ethereum Mainnet - with all it's accounts, balances, smart contracts, and blockchain state - continued to be secured by proof-of-work, even while the Beacon Chain ran in parallel using proof-of-stake. Initially, the Beacon Chain shipped separately from Mainnet. bear in mind I'm an autistic so I can keep track off all manners of bullshit but frequently cant even find my own house keys so I do worry that I make my stories a bit dense and tend to go a little too silly some times.Ethereum State: transactions, apps, contracts, balances ⛏ Proof-of-work □ Proof-of-stake □ Beacon Chain □ The Merge □ Sharding I've got a small word doc full of rambling notes I could clean up and make presentable its just I think some might find this connected world a bit confusing. ![]() Or just a list of links to the story posts so far?Ĭuz I could do a few bits to help flesh out the background stuff eg basic rules and oddities of the metal, vague general things about the worlds history eg who were the primordial's and what do dragons have to do with them, known aspects of demons etc So what's required ? plot synopsis, lore snippets, guide to general events. I gather I'm gonna get some things said one way or another but as far as I'm aware u/SSBSubjugation seems the authority on this as it said he/she was the one who put in my entry. So that means basically Moral grey area Legion of monsters: Sanguine and Legion of monsters are all technically set in the same world and ME and u/Silent_technology540 try and keep things consistent while constantly bouncing ideas off one another and having a little fun as we write.īut The wiki entry. He gets to use the greys I get to use the Bureau we both try to not jump the shark too much and hopefully we make something entertaining while we both bounce between doing stuff that sort of delves into horror cyberpunk and culture-clash with a dose of military sci-fi mixed in. While the same basic world we try not to tangle ourselves up in each others work although what I was currently writing with Sanguine has crossed this line a bit So apparently my Moral grey Area is now listed on the wiki tab not sure what to do or say about this other than thanks and maybe I should mention some sorts of the ground rules that Myself and Silent_tech kind of agreed upon as we began to cross our stories. ![]()
