The Ethereum Merge has been completed successfully! The new era of Proof-of-Stake and low-energy footprint ushers!!
One of the most significant events in the blockchain space, the much-awaited Ethereum Merge of the Beacon chain or the Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus chain has finally been completed successfully. The Merge was supposed to take place when the Terminal Total Difficulty (TTD) of 58,750,000,000,000,000,000,000 happened on September 15th, 06:45 AM GMT. The first block generated by the new PoS consensus model post the merge was finalized on-chain 12 seconds after. Post the Merge, the initial marke...

How to build NFTs in the NEO / N3 blockchain setup and what is the NEP-11 protocol [Part 1]
This article is part of a two part series of how to build your own NFT project on the NEO N3 blockchain ecosystem in a language of your choice. I lay stress on “language of your choice” because the NEO blockchain offers this unique ability where instead of learning a new obscure language, you can bring your ideas to life in a language you are comfortable with, be it Java, C#, or Python. In the first part, we would look at it from a slightly theoretical perspective, understanding NFTs from a N...

Bellatrix Upgrade for Ethereum Beacon Chain Merge completed successfully
The Bellatrix Upgrade for the Ethereum Beacon Chain [PoS chain] was completed successfully at 11:34 AM UTC on the 6th of September, 2022. The upgrade was scheduled to happen at Epoch 144896 of the Beacon Chain. Note that in the Beacon chain epochs signify predictable time periods that are further sub-divided into slots. Contrast this with the PoW chain where the latest block height would signify a reasonably predictable time period. Before this upgrade, node operators are expected to update t...

The Ethereum Merge is coming soon – What does it mean?
Ethereum Merge - Merge of the Beacon Chain to Mainnet. Switching from PoW to PoSThe Ethereum Mainnet Merge, which is just around the corner, is probably the most anticipated event in Ethereum’s history and not without reason since it would represent a massive shift in terms of the fundamentals of how Ethereum operates. It also sets the stage for the next set of upgrades that pave the way for the platform to be used by millions and billions of users. We would try to understand what the Merge i...

What are ENS domains (.eth) and how to register one
Ethereum Name Service [ENS]If you are on Twitter, you must have seen usernames with the .eth suffix. If you have wondered what it means, this guide will help you understand as well as own a .eth domain for yourself. Very simply put, an ENS domain is intended to be like a global identity mechanism for the web3 world. One of the basic problems it tries to solve is that you can have a human-readable name via the domain to the cryptic blockchain addresses. It makes it easier to share and transact...
