This podcast goes beyond Mayukh Mukhopadhyay’s Ethereum Smart Contract Development and outlines the transition of the Ethereum blockchain from Proof of Work (PoW) to Proof of Stake (PoS), a significant shift that has fundamentally changed the network’s energy consumption, scalability, and overall performance. The text explores the limitations of PoW, explains the advantages of PoS, and traces Ethereum’s evolution from 2018 to 2024, highlighting key milestones like the launch of the Beacon Chain and the Merge, which successfully integrated PoS into the Ethereum network. The appendix also discusses the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead for Ethereum as it continues to grow and adapt to the changing landscape of blockchain technology.
