Buterin and Armstrong reflect on proof-of-stake shift as Ethereum Merge nears

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin and Coinbase (NASDAQ:COIN) CEO Brian Armstrong believe that a gradual mind shift and important community contributions led to their backing of Ethereum’s upcoming move from a proof-of-work (PoW) to proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus.
