Episode notes

There is a separate network up grade forthcoming six or 12 months after the merge, which will enable withdrawals from from staking. You can't withdraw your teath, and you can't choose a differet staking provide after the mood. There are other solutions coming for all this - ways to stake with these providers while not giving them access to your funds or your keys.

The Merge, which marks the official transition to Proof-of-Stake, is slated to occur around September 15 - 16th and is possibly the largest crypto event to happen in a long time. The transition to Proof-of-Stake is supposedly a bullish event, but lately, there have been concerns raised on whether it is the right move.

If you’re a founder or investor in crypto, you should be prepared for what’s to come.

Today, we have Anthony Sassano, one of the largest proponents and educator of Ethereum on the show to share with us:
