Channel: Smart Contract Research
Date: 2022-09-19

Watch the Smart Contract Research Forum (SCRF) Community Call from September 15, 2022. During this week's community call, Lucas Nuzzi, Head of Research and Development at  CoinMetrics and SCRF contributor, led a discussion on on the future of #ethereum following #themerge. Some important questions that were discussed included the following:

- How does Ethereum's transition from a Proof-of-Work (PoW) to Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism change its security model? 

- What is Maximum Extractable Value (MEV), and why is it an important element in the #ethereummerge? 

- What are the scaling possibilities for Ethereum post-#ethmerge?  


Originally broadcast live via Google Meet on September 15, 2022.
