He was a writer, bored, demotivated.

He was a writer, bored, demotivated.

Projects and ideas filling his mind yet not his paper. His screen void, empty, silent. He’d start, then stop.

–Who’s going to care?– His doubts barriers. His talent great. His name unknown.

He promised himself he’d finish this draft, just one, his attention drifting towards his phone. A shimmering, pulsating phone disappearing in front of his eyes.

— WTF? — his scream. The phone was gone and no search made it logical.

Over the days, every hesitation made something disappear: TV, iPad, Laptop… It took him three days to understand and a few more to learn: his self-doubt was deleting his world.

He was responsible for not using his talent in exchange for excuses.

As nothing but his screen was left, his soul forced into writing, the best draft man had seen finally came to life.

He had learned his art.
Trouble never grows old.

Trouble never grows old. The truth of this statement hit me afresh quite recently. I was assisting mum with some spring cleaning when I happened upon a little book I bought in 1993 when I was still at University. It is titled ‘Pathways for Turbulent Times’ written by Marcia Munger and published in 1988.

Image by John Hain from Pixabay

In her book, Ms. Munger analyses the causes of and our responses to the trouble and turbulence sighting societal trends, family interrelationships, economic woes, job insecurity, fear, stress, money worries, conflict, and a host of other things. What is interesting is that what was deemed trouble in 1988 is not much different in 2020. The names, causative factors, and general environment may differ but by and large, the same issues bedevil the world. Indeed, trouble never grows old. There is trouble for every age and generation whether in 1988 or 2020.

A Short Note

For when you feel like you’ve stalled

Photo by Miguel Bautista on Unsplash

I’ve been known to stare at my stats, looking for validation and signs of progress in the one thing I cannot control.

It messes with your head, heart and output. Bad news those stats.

Lies, damn lies and statistics.

Statistics can be used to give power to weak arguments making them more persuasive than they deserve to be.

They can also, when stared at longingly, be misinterpreted to mean failure when in fact they highlight success.

Celebrate the small wins.

Be grateful for every pair of eyes

For every slow clap in the quiet

For every reader who raced to the end

For every new writer that joins your pub

For every new story submitted

For every little good thing that slowly adds. Stay consistent. Show up every day. Woody Allen once said 80% of success in life is just showing up.

In protecting my space to make sure I was getting some time off for the winter break, I lost some opportunities. I think I used to be so afraid I’d never get these opportunities again. I’m now realizing that I don’t entirely mourn them as a loss.

I see them as gains.

I see them as re-aligning with values that I’m much clearer on now that I’m not reacting in knee-jerk fashion to mold to others' expectations above and beyond where they fit in my life.

In anxiety, my worldview naturally narrows, only seeing the danger and reacting as quickly as possible to grasp these opportunities. It’s a survival technique. But, I am fortunate enough to not be in that survival mode any longer, ready to narrow down the window of acceptance so it best aligns with what I truly want.

Tags: Medium 101, Marketing, Publishing, Short Story, Short Form

Shortform Publishing requires you to bold your fist sentence and to forget about the title heading as well as the subtitle heading. Your first sentence should be in sentence case not title case, do not place a capital at the beginning of each word. These formatting requirements are in place so that Medium recognizes your writing as Shortform and gets distributed as such.

In Everything Shortform we are keeping these formatting requirements as rule for publishing stories. Remember the rule is 150-words or less.

I’m writing this from my phone. I hope it’s published correctly. It’s the first time I’ve published from my phone.

Your Shortform stories will be removed from Everything Shortform if they do not meet Shortform Publishing requirements. It’s up to you to use the proper format.

I’ve decided to go into the honorary doctorate degree-granting business.

It’s probably not going to be lucrative …

… but it’ll be wildly satisfying and plenty of fun.

Yale, Harvard and other august institutions of higher education do it.

So, why can’t I?

With that faulty logic firmly in place, “Doctor Funny” hereby grants an honorary doctorate level degree of her choosing to my writing buddy and spirit guide Aimée Gramblin.

OK Doctor Aimee— it’s now up to you to show us something funny and “doctor-ish” in what ever way you choose. When you’ve decided to play doctor, we’ll happily publish your manuscript at “Doctor Funny.” Your extended family will be so proud.

Heads Up! writing friends of mine. This “honor” may strike again sporadically and without warning. Kind of like a doctor barging into your exam room 47 minutes late for your scheduled appointment.
“What can I do now?”

“What can I do now?”

Quite often, I take a walk to my past. I pick the flowers called memories and smell them. Some smell heavenly; others don’t. Some thorns make me bleed. I ask myself “What can I do now?”.

My mind doesn’t leave me alone just like that. It tells me “Let’s take a ride to the future.” Fear drags me down. I hear a voice: “What can I do now?”

I’m not saying that thinking about the past or dreaming about the future is a bad thing. Yet, when we tend to do it all the time, it ruins our present. It stops us from enjoying the little moments.

Whenever you feel the sad tugs of the past, ask yourself: “What can I do now?”

Whenever you feel the scary tugs of the future, ask yourself: “What can I do now?”

Their newly purchased home had everything that Mr. and Mrs. Peter wanted, except for the littleness. The house was located at the corner of the street and had a harvest garden and picturesque surroundings. Most of the time, they spent time in their garden. There was an enormous oak tree a few meters away from their bedroom window. They preferred to spend more time in the shade of the oak tree. When Mrs. Peter writes, that oak tree provides better shade for her writing desk in their bedroom. In time, that oak became an essential part of their lives.
Multi Tasking is a myth

Tags: Notetomyself, Under 500, Short Form

Dear self,

I know.

You think you can read that article, listen to that podcast and gorge on your sandwich, as your mind drifts between last night’s dinner table conversation and a youtube video blares in the background. You think you can do all of that at once. After all, isn’t multi-tasking your superpower?

Come on, really, who are you kidding?

Multitasking is a myth.

When you try to do multiple things at once, you end up doing none of them properly. Instead of cramming every second with a gazillion activities, learn to do just one thing at a time.

Do that one thing, but do it well.

Because what matters more than what you do, is how you do it. Instead of splitting your attention into a million tiny pieces, synergize it towards just one thing and if you do it well enough, every action will transform into an act of meditation.

I know it’s difficult. But it will save you from floating in a sea of sedated numbness. Save yourself before you drown.

One. Thing. At. A. Time.

This year is finally ending.

2020 is almost gone, and for most of us has been a difficult year.

It has made us suffer, but in some cases, it has also made us improve ourselves. Certainly, it is going to be a year to remember even if we preferred not to.

I would like to ask you:

Have you changed during this year? How?

What are your expectations for the future?

Do you think our mankind will change and become better?

And talking about change here is my first story on Medium. Read it and compare it to my last ones. Isn’t change beautiful?

Ethereum on the trail of Bitcoin: CME announces ETH futures
Tags: Ethereum, Cryptocurrency, Eth

The second-largest cryptocurrency in the world, Ethereum, has gained quite a bit in value in the last few hours and days. With the announcement that the world’s largest futures exchange would offer ETH futures in the future, the price rose dramatically again. CME’s notice dated December 16, 2020 indicates that the company planned to roll out on February 8, 2021. According to CME, it took this step because there was enormous customer demand for futures on ETH. Is Ethereum now following the traces that Bitcoin has left?

Investments by established institutions are a positive signal

Similar to the pioneering cryptocurrency Bitcoin, investments by established financial institutions can provide a bullish signal from the digital currency. This thesis has also materialized in the 24 hours after the announcement was made. Because the price of Ethereum shot up by more than 10 percent within a few hours. The value even reached the previous annual high of $ 650.11.

CME’s investment could also motivate more big names to invest in the world’s second largest cryptocurrency. Tim McCourt, CEO of CME, believes Ethereum can capitalize on Bitcoin’s current interest and strength. According to McCour, these theses also substantiate the new record highs for the Bitcoin option market.

With its introduction, CME fulfils the wishes and demands of customers

Above all, customers should play a decisive role in the development of the company. Commenting on the launch in 2021, McCourt said, “Given the tremendous customer demand and robust growth of our Bitcoin futures and options markets, we believe that the addition of Ethereum futures will delight our customers. Ether is the second-largest cryptocurrency in the world and our ETH futures contract will help institutional investors to better protect themselves against price fluctuations. ”

It remains to be seen whether ordinary Ethereum wallets will continue to benefit from price gains. Corrections are likely to be made first.

What is R34PER FINANCE?
Tags: Gem, Defi, Blockchain, Cryptocurrency, Eth

R34PER FINANCE is a project born from the ashes of a community left behind by a rug. The revival of the project was a must for the sake of everyone involved so we took the initiative to rebuild from scratch. We now have a new smart contract, a new website and new identity. R34PER FINANCE is not a simple erc20 token, it is now running a deflationary tax protocol after forking RFI, RFCTR and R34P this time doing it properly unlike the thieving scum that ran away with peoples ETH. R34PER FINANCE token will be deflationary at 1% of a transaction and 0.5% will be redistributed to the holders according to their wallet balances.

What are the plans?

Plans for R34PER FINANCE are quiet simple as the lead developer has worked for other projects as a anon dev he has access to a wide range of different resources to build a network around R34PER FINANCE. The first plan will be to introduce R34FRM (our farming token) alongside a Web portal to stake from. How R34FRM will work is by staking your R34PER tokens via the website no need for LP tokens etc just hit stake and you’ll start earning R34FRM based on your share of the vault. Our second plan is to launch R34PER X, which is our version of Linkswap. R34PER X will allow users to take advantage of our partnership projects as they will all be listed on there and any projects that want to list must go through KYC with the team before to build a safe network. R34PER and R34FRM holders will be given lower fees and voting rights on any tokens up for listing or delisting.

What are the Tokenomics?

100,000 R34PER — Max supply 45,000 R34PER — Presale 25,000 R34PER — Airdrop for the Rugged 30,000 R34PER — Uniswap locked Liquidity pool All unsold will be sent to the burn address.

How the presale will work?

The presale will run via a Whitelist and be set as follows: Price: 1 ETH = 1000 R34PER Min/Max purchase: 0.5-2ETH Softcap: 25ETH Hardcap: 45 ETH The full raised ETH will be locked.

Crypto Assets Managed by Grayscale Increased 430% in 11 Months

Arcane Research analyst Vetle Lunde estimated at 430% growth in the volume of assets under the management of the investment company Grayscale Investments from January 13 to December 12 (from $2.3 billion to $12.1 billion).

The Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) manages 544 thousand BTC, which is almost 3% of the Bitcoin market supply. In mid-January, the figure was 261 thousand BTC.

The share of the Ethereum Trust (ETHE) in the issue of the second largest cryptocurrency in terms of capitalization reached 2.5%. According to Lunde, the growth in the performance of this instrument is even more impressive — over the corresponding period, the volume of ETH at the disposal of the company increased from 497 thousand to 2.875 million.

On December 14, the value of funds managed by Grayscale reached $13 billion. GBTC accounts for $10.8 billion, which is 83% of total assets, and ETHE — 13.6% with an indicator of $1.72 billion.

The company continues to use the #DropGold slogan, urging investors to ditch gold as a store of value in favor of bitcoin.

Recall that an advertising campaign launched in August exploits the “Money printer go BRRR” meme, hinting at the active work of the FRS printing press during the crisis amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

BlockSDK API supports Ethereum API.

Ethereum is the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, after Bitcoin. And Ethereum is the most actively used blockchain in the world.

Ethereum has shown that it continues to grow with the launch of Eth2.

Currently, Ethereum 2.0 has emerged as the fourth-largest proof-of-stake network due to its total value locked to staking within approximately six weeks after the Eth2 deposit contract was activated.

If you want to use such a huge blockchain, you need some knowledge of it. But BlockSDK doesn’t.

If you use BlockSDK, you don’t need to know the details of blockchain technology.

BlockSDK provides an easy-to-use REST API that allows you to easily access blockchain technology.

You just need to look at the BlockSDK library and use only the functions you need.

Ethereum API —Get BlockChain

Through Ethereum API, Ethereum Blockchain information can be loaded.

The GET request expects a response such as:

{

“height” : 9098547,

“bestblockhash” => “0x235145654e2034d0852a9e8cd9bc6e3eea8a7179aec0723cd12db7d18e5f06b4”,

“prev_hash” =>

“unconfirmed_count” : 1234,

“low_gwei” : 1,

“medium_gwei” : 2,

“high_gwei” : 3

}

Ethereum API — CraeteAddress

createaddress is a way to create an ethereum wallet. BlockSDK helps you create an ethereum wallet very simply.

Ethereum API — SendToAddress

Funds received via SendToAddress can be moved to another wallet. BlockSDK can monitor the wallet using webhook service. When funds are received, BlockSDK will move the funds to the target wallet/address and then notify you by sending a call to the URL you specify.

Mining Ethereum on AMD GPUs with 4G memory by Bminer 16.4.0
Tags: Bminer, Mining, Amd, Eth, 4G

Mining Ethereum on AMD GPUs with 4G memory by Bminer 16.4.0 Bminer ·Dec 23, 2020

Traditional miners stop mining Ethereum on AMD GPUs with 4G memory as the size of DAG becomes too big for them.

Bminer supports loading parts of the DAG so that the GPUs can continue to mine Ethereum. You can specify the size of the partial DAG through the -ethash-allocation parameter.

For example,

bminer -uri ethproxy+ssl://0x6D2a79507C67A8ACBc01D16a4858469677792C39.worker@eu1.ethermine.org:5555 -ethash-allocation 4081

You can use 4080–4090 for typical AMD 4G GPUs. Larger allocation leads to better performance although Bminer might fail due to out of memory errors. Bminer optimizes on top of the AMD driver to utilize more device memory to deliver better performances.

Please see https://www.bminer.me/releases/ for more details.

Happy mining!

Gen2’s Big Announcement — The Iris Token Platform
By: The Capital
Tags: Ethereum, Blockchain, Eth, Bitcoin, Crypto

This past week, Gen2 Technologies, a public company trading under the ticker BRKK, announced its revolutionary Iris Token Platform. We are excited about this new market proposition for a number of reasons, especially the following.

The Iris Token. Yes, a catchy name. But also a digital token which we expect will be in demand. An ERC Ethereum design, which will function as a utility token. Buyers will get the opportunity to get unique and unparalleled views of professional sports teams and players in action, along with other people doing things of interest. Sports viewing, reality TV, and user-generated content will never be quite the same.

An Advanced Technological and Media Platform. The Iris Token platform will leverage a distributed network of thousands of miniature body-worn cameras, which can even be woven directly into sports jerseys and clothing. Content will be streamable directly from cameras, on-demand, by holders of the Iris Token. Seamless, unique, and advanced streamable content — this service promises to deliver consumers a step-change improvement in their content consumption possibilities.

To learn more details about why the Iris Token Platform might well be the next big thing in content distribution and enjoyment, click on the link to read the Iris Token whitepaper.

因为YFI创始人AC的一条转推，将Inverse Finance推向了大众，一晚上项目创始人Haridy不得不好几次提升额度，从24万刀的限额提升到了1630万，但也将很多来不及投的用户拒之门外。是什么让大家蜂拥而至到这个未经审计且只有一个开发人员的项目呢？

本文将围绕这几个问题展开：

Inverse Finance 是个什么项目？ AC 和他到底有没有关系？ Inverse Finance的创始人是什么来头？ INV会发行代币吗？ 这几个池子的额度都没抢到，对于普通玩家来说还有没有机会入场？

最近公众号一直在跟踪YFI创始人AC并购的一些Defi项目，虽然说AC推出翻车的项目不少，但是YFI和kp3r这种百倍千倍万倍币的光环一经出现，背后早就跟了一群忠实的追随者。

那么首先我们来了解一下，Inverse Finance是一个什么样的项目，能引来大佬的转发？

简单来说Inverse.finance是遵循使用稳定币dai提供无损投资，用户存入dai并以1：1比例接收到保管库代币indai，然后金库会将dai投入到yearn之类的收益优化机枪池中，并收到eth，wbtc，yfi收益。

Yearn V2 Vault提供支持

据Inverse Finance创始人Haridy介绍：YFI团队已将INV列入白名单，这也意味着在Yearn Finance上公开发布Yearn v2之前，Inverse Finance存款人是最早使用者之一。

目前有三个池子，收益及情况如下

Dai to ETH: 30w的限额，APY大概在25%

Dai to WBTC：800w的限额，APY大概在3%（据创始人介绍，目前策略是在coumpund上，之后会迁移到yearn上，收益也会相对应提高）

Dai to YFI：800w的限额，APY不详。

接下来可能就是大家最关心的问题，AC 和他到底有没有关系？

让我们一起看一下Cointelegraph今早对创始人Nour Haridy采访时关于这个问题的回答。

CT：你如何形容AC转发前和转发后？

Haridy：老实说，整个项目都在AC之后。当我写协议时，我首先在Telegram上与他取得了联系，他感到异常兴奋，并说他会看看这个。这说服了我公开发布它。但是，是的，我还没有准备好接受他转推后的所有炒作。我当然感谢曝光，尽管压力很大。

CT:和YFI团队一起工作是什么样的？

Haridy：请注意，我不属于YFI团队。我只是和他们聊天。他们只是将Inverse列入白名单，以便尽早使用其V2保管库。他们对集成非常有帮助，并帮助我检查了代码并提出了非常重要的建议。

CT：你提升了一些池子的上限，为什么人们对你的项目如此兴奋？

Haridy：因为安德烈（Andre）发了推文。有人称它为安德烈硬币。有些人错过了安德烈（Andre）先前成功完成的代币发行，他们非常渴望弥补。

另外创始人在电报群组中更加明确的说清了AC和项目的关系：

AC 和项目并没有关系，他只是转发一条推特。

Inverse Finance创始人Haridy是谁，什么来头？

在cointelegraph的采访中，Haridy也做了简单的自我介绍：

过去几年我一直在以太坊领域担任开发人员。主要设计无gas费的Dai智能钱包，例如Metacash和Mosendo。现在，我只从事Inverse.Finance。我认为，除了当前的简单MVP设计之外，它还有很多潜力。

另外小编也通过github他的页面简历也验证了他的信息。haridy来自埃及，从18年开始担任web3开发工程师，共同创立了metacash钱包，也参与了mosendo的开发。精通阿拉伯语和英语，也喜欢打游戏特别是LoL，并对中东和美国政治感兴趣。

INV会发行代币吗？

会！明天会发布

INV token launch details (NOT YET LAUNCHED):

- 初始流通100k initial supply.

- 每年挖矿产生4% Minting is limited to 4% max per year. 1% each quarter. Minting power will be given to governance

-这两周有40%会作为流动性奖励发放 40% of the supply will be distributed as liquidity incentive over the next 2 weeks.

-15%开发人员锁仓两年 15% of the supply will be held by the dev. Vested over 2 years.

-剩下会通过治理发放 Rest of the tokens will be controlled by governance and distributed in the future for early community, future contributors and more incentive events.

而且创始人Haridy再三强调没有私募没有预售，更不会放到uniswap。

这几个池子的额度都没抢到，对于普通玩家来说还有没有机会入场？

机会肯定会出现，后期项目会逐渐开放更多池子和提升额度，但相对应的APY也会相对降低。

而且从一开始的年化收益上来看，或许并不是很耀眼，但大家更寄希望的也就是随后发布的代币了。会不会是一个十倍，百倍乃至千倍币呢？

但也希望大家多多留意风险，Defi市场机会还很多！！

另外大家想要继续跟进此项目，并一起在Defi海洋里冲浪，欢迎加到我们的微信社群里，专注好产品，布局新赛道！！！

KP3F Network
Tags: Kp3f, Eth, Keeper, Bitcoin, Kp3r

An Advanced DeFi Keeper Network

Keeper Finance is a decentralized finance protocol that is inspired by job matching protocol Keep2r which is DeFi version 3.0. It is designed to be a lite version of Keep2r and is a more flexible and profitable protocol.

Keeper Finance uses a unique mechanism that ensures that jobs are executed and job takers are rewarded promptly within its blockchain ecosystem.

To achieve this, Keeper Finance uses a job matching concept whereby job takers called Keepers register for jobs. These contracts (jobs) are designed to be executed by keepers and once registered can be acted upon by keepers on the Keeper Finance blockchain.

How Does Keeper Finance Work

Keeper Finance is fully decentralized and members are involved in the creation and execution of smart contracts (Jobs). All that is required for a worker is to register as a keeper and the process can only be performed by bonding KP3F tokens.

The bonding process takes 24 hours after which a registered user is activated as a keeper. Once this process is completed a timestamp is registered on the Keeper Finance blockchain network.

Creating jobs is flexible and easy to perform on the Keeper Finance. There are two different methods with the first via the Keeper Finance contract. This enables a job owner to register a job after which a pending governance vote is placed for the job specified by the address in the function arguments.

Keeper Finance users also have a limit for a job request every 13 days when using a specific address. The second method is via governance whereby a proposal is submitted and includes the contract as a job. If governance is approve the smart contract registers as a job that can be executed by keepers.

Payments are made by using the utility native token KP3F which can be converted to other ERC-20 tokens on popular Dex like Uniswap.

KP3F Token

Keeper Finance is powered by its utility token Keeper Finance (KP3F). KP3F is used to initiate bonding and also for the payment of rewards on the Keeper Finance platform. It is an ERC-20 token built on Ethereum and offers similar attributes to Ether.

KP3F has a limited market supply of 200,000 tokens that would be produced by the DeFi protocol. The distribution of the tokens is as follows: 65% will be offered in a PRE-SALE. While 10% will be made available as part of its liquidity pool, 10% will be kept aside for development, 10% for promotion respectively while the remaining 5% will be distributed to the founding KP3F team and locked for six months.

KP3F has further use cases apart from being the utility token of Keeper Finance and can be staked for rewards or exchanged on decentralized exchanges including Uniswap.

In conclusion, Keeper Finance is an ambitious DeFi project that aims to simplify the job matching process. It offers faster bond creation time, more tokens and reduced keeper job working time.

Squirrel Weekly (15/12) 🐿️
By: Squirrel Finance
Tags: Defi, Ethereum, Eth

The 14th weekly recap & brief news about Squirrel.Finance

Scrat restless as BTC continues to crab around $19k

Welcome back to another weekly project update, thanks to everyone who gave feedback on the previous weeks 👍

Stash DeFi Plugins ✅

We released stash v0.2 this week, as discussed in previous articles this adds support for DeFi plugins for Stash! 💪 This allows your stashed assets to be integrated with other DeFi contracts (farming etc.) so you can still use your assets whilst they are secured in your Stash smart contract wallet 💸 For starters there is just the NUTS staking plugin, so if you wish to deposit your NUTS into your stash and then stake them -you can now! 🙌 More plugins will come in future, but next week probably will be focused on some minor UI clean-up & improvements etc.

Reminder: If you already have a stash (but want new plugin support) you will need to create a new stash (but don’t worry your old stash will continue working forever, as its your own smart contract on the ethereum network) as a reward if you create a new stash you’ll be airdropped 100 NUTS to your new stash 🙌 (again: only for people with existing/old stashes)

Product Stats 📊

Insure USDC farming: $7857

Insure Eth collateral: 8.496 ETH

Total Stashes: 14 users

Estimated Stash TVL: $28634

Miscellaneous 🌰

Continuing on from last week (whilst price remains low) we carried out another 10 eth buyback of NUTS, there still remains 220 eth for future buybacks of NUTS.

Finally as mentioned in last week’s article, I’ve created a short survey on our products so would appreciate if as many people as possible to fill out so can improve our ecosystem based on feedback. It’s super short, should only take 2–3 mins so please go fill it out!

And a reward there’ll be five random winners who will receive 100 NUTS prizes! 🙌 (so be sure to put correct eth address in at end) Thanks to everyone who fills it out: here! 👈 👈 👈

Thanks for reading the 14th Squirrel Weekly. If you have any questions just let me know -see you all next week! 📆
Ethereum 2.0 Is Around the Corner — What’s Coming?
Tags: Ethereum, Eth2, Eth, Ether, Ethereum Blockchain

On December 1, the long-awaited Ethereum 2.0 upgrade went live. It was in development for many years, some people didn’t even believe it was possible to upgrade the network, but now it happened. It’s important to understand that this is only Phase 0 — the Beacon Chain is up and running, with real decentralized validator nodes, however, it’s not fully functional yet. The Beacon Chain is separated from the previous v1.0 network and will remain in this state for several more years.

Nevertheless, this is already a giant step forward for the entire project, and the number of people interested in staking speaks for itself. To launch the Mainnet on December 1 it was necessary to collect from stakers a pool of 524,288 ETH in a special deposit contract. The deadline for meeting the threshold was set to November 24. Nine hours before the deadline, the requirement was met, 16,384 validators participated in this fundraising. Now they won’t be able to withdraw their funds until the network reaches phase 1.5. But this does not stop people wishing to receive a staking reward right now — at the moment, 1,313,569 ETH are already locked in the new network. The minimum stake to participate in staking is 32 ETH.

It’s just the first step in the long roadmap of the future upgrades that might allow Ethereum to actually become some sort of a decentralized world computer. What phases will the further roadmap of Ether consist of? What we have now is the Beacon Chain, phase zero. Next year, 2021, developers will focus on the first phase, sharding. This means that the entire load on the blockchain will be divided between 64 shard chains. In the first phase, shard chains will not support smart contracts or token transactions between addresses. They will provide the network with additional data, which, in combination with another technology, rollups, will increase the throughput to hundreds of thousands of transactions per second. Then, in the second stage, the functionality of the execution of smart contracts and transactions may be added to shards, but this is still being discussed. It is possible that shards will remain in the state of data hubs. After the first phase, there will be Phase 1.5 — the merging of the old blockchain, what we now consider Ethereum, and the new Beacon Chain. The old chain will become just another shard chain, and the Proof-of-Work algorithm with its ASIC and GPU mining will become a thing of the past.

What does Phase 2 include? There is no clarity on this yet. It is quite possible that after the implementation of shards as data storage hubs and merging with the old chain, Ethereum will already meet all the needs of the community and a huge number of businesses will finally be able to use the blockchain. In any case, this is a huge step forward for the entire industry, and although we cannot imagine all the variety of possible uses for blockchain in the future, it is quite possible that it will become as common as the Internet.
