The Kintsugi 🍵Merge Testnet has been a valuable testing ground. After After various test suites and multi-tenant development networks, Goerli Shadow Support from #TestInTheMerge CommunityWe have now reached a solid and reliable protocol specification. Now Customers These new specifications, a successor, have been adopted. Kintsugi, Kiln 🔥🧱This The release is here!

Like The Ethereum mainnet, Kiln Execution Layer launched simultaneously alongside proof-of-work Beacon Chain Running proof-of-stake The In The merger was successful Kiln On March 15, 2022. The Network It is now fully under the proof of stake

Kiln It This is likely to be the last public testnet. Application Tool Developers, node operators, and infrastructure providers are encouraged test on. Kiln To Facilitate a smooth transition to the existing public testnets.

KintsugiIn The former fusion testnet is expected to be removed in the coming weeks.

For Application Developers A range of tools

With Kiln Before When your product is live, it’s important to ensure that everything runs smoothly during the proof-of-stake transition and after merger. As Explained In a previous post, The Merge A small subset will have little effect EthereumNoNone of these should be broken. AlsoMost API endpoints remain stable for users, except when you use PoW-specific methods like eth_getWork).

That Despite The majority of applications are therefore on Ethereum These Chain contracts are not the only type of contract. Kiln This Here you must ensure that your front end software, tools and deployment pipeline work as intended. We It It is highly recommended developers complete a test and deploy cycle. Kiln Any Please report any issues with the tools and dependencies to the maintainers. If Use This tool is for you if your question doesn’t fit in the designated area. This Repository.

Node Operators

After The merger, Ethereum Full A combination of a consensus client that runs proof of stake on the node and a consensus layer client will make up the node Beacon ChainAn The execution layer client is used for managing user state and running the associated computations. With transactions. These For
