What is Ethereum, and How Did It Change After Merge?

Written by:  Rex

If you look at the ranking of the best crypto assets, you will see Ethereum coming second after Bitcoin. Indeed, Ethereum is the second-best crypto project traded on all crypto platforms and has the second-highest price and market capitalisation. 

As of November 2022, the ETH USDT pair is traded at $1530, with a daily trade volume of over $23 billion and a market cap exceeding $187 billion.

The project was initially built on the Proof-of-Work consensus protocol, which means that receiving every new block in the Ethereum blockchain requires mining capacity, energy consumption and expensive equipment. Recently, at the beginning of autumn 2022, the Ethereum network switched to the Proof-of-Stake consensus protocol, which brought a lot of benefits to the project. Now that we have found out what is ETH and the mechanism of its work, we may discuss the benefits of the Ethereum blockchain transition to PoS.

Advantages of the New Ethereum Blockchain

Here are the main positive effects of the Ethereum blockchain merge:

  • Energy consumption is reduced by 99.992
  • Transactions in the Ethereum network are much cheaper 
  • No need for mining equipment, so there are no additional expenses for its maintenance
  • Much bigger throughput
  • Possibility to stake ETH.

So we can say this Ethereum merge has brought many benefits to the network and is possibly the reason why its price will increase in the future.
