Ethereum developers are suggesting to lower the award for a block from 3ETH to 2 ETH and at the same time with slower implementation of complexity increase. Developers also stated that it is going to lower the chances of network forking made by miners. We note that Ethereum protocol is going to make mining much more complex and will stimulate blockchain to transfer to Proof-Of-Stake (PoS). Since the implementation of Casper Hybrid is being postponed the experts are trying to avoid so called the ?Ice Age?. Developer Hudson Jason said that second stage of Metropolis hard fork might be implemented before Devcon Prague Conference at the end of October this year. Earlier Vitalik Buterin provided a detailed roadmap of Ethereum that showed that Carper and sharding are not going to be implemented at the same time. |
