Ropsten Ethereum testnet ready for Merge ‘first dress rehearsal’
The Ropsten testnet on the Ethereum network is ready to set the stage for the “first dress rehearsal” of the Merge to adopt the Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism.
Core Ethereum developer Tim Beiko announced on May 31 that a new Beacon Chain for Ropsten has been launched. It will serve as the precursor for the final test Merge, which is expected to be “around June 8th.”
