The Ethereum Foundation Bug Bounty Program is one of the earliest and longest running programs of its kind. It was launched in 2015 and targeted the Ethereum PoW mainnet and related software. In 2020, a second Bug Bounty Program for the new Proof-of-Stake Consensus Layer was launched, running alongside the original Bug Bounty Program. The

It’s always fun to hear about new grants as they’re awarded, but what happens after the announcement? In this series, we check in on projects that are well underway – or already at the finish line. Read on to learn about some recent milestones and achievements by grantees!… Source link

A Terminal Total Difficulty (TTD) of 50000000000000000 has been selected for the Ropsten Merge. Stakers and node operators must manually override the TTD in both their execution and consensus layer clients before June 7, 2022. Proof-of-Work testnets can have volatile hash rates and the exact timing of The Merge on Ropsten is hard to predict

Queridos amigos, It’s happening. Devcon is back! When we first announced that Devcon would take place in Bogotá, we spoke about all the city had to offer, and what we dreamed the event could become. Later this year, we will finally meet in Bogotá. With Devconnect now wrapped up, our team is working to bring
