The Merge 🔌 — Ethereum is going to proof of stake. Shopify is restaffing their leadership. And EU energy execs are doing too well.

Ethereum, a blockchain platform supporting over 50% of the total value of the decentralized finance industry, is shifting to a less energy-intensive way of validating transactions.

Shopify restaffed most of its leadership team during the pandemic, and now the top brass of what was once Canada’s most valuable company isn’t looking very Canadian.

European energy executives are doing a little too well these days.
