随着以太坊合并日期的临近，准备工作处于高位。以太坊生态系统一直在为最终推出其期待已久的升级付出了巨大的努力。此升级将使以太坊主网从工作量证明 (PoW) 共识机制转变为权益证明 (PoS)。
第二大加密货币的过渡计划一直大大滞后。然而，由于 PoW 区块链在挖矿过程中的能源消耗受到高度批评，此举已成为必要。
此外，大多数矿工使用的燃料会导致大气中碳排放量增加，从而在许多司法管辖区造成严重的环境威胁。
但以太坊区块链已经收集了它的游戏，因为它期待最终取消网络上的挖矿活动。它已经推出了Beacon Chain，这是支持以太坊2.0网络的主要引擎。最后，它正朝着今年 9 月中旬信标链和以太坊主网的“合并”而努力。
作为向 PoS 过渡的重大举措之一，以太坊 2.0 客户端 Teku 最近释放 一个名为 v22.8.1 的新版本。
根据该网络的公告，该版本是维持 Bellatrix 升级在 9 月 6 日的活动中运行的重要阶段。因此，它将支持 Merge 的流程，并保持一切正常以作为 PoS 的最终发布网络。
随着这一最新推出，所有主网节点都有望通过升级到 Teku 版本来与流程保持一致。该版本需要连接到本地执行客户端的引擎 API，并将促进向 PoS 的无缝过渡。此外，节点的验证者应该为升级设置默认的费用接收者。
如果不更新执行客户端，Teku 将在其报告中给出合并转换配置错误。因此，在执行客户端更新之后，不会有关于客户端不可用的警告报告。
要获得所需的 Merge 激活，需要适当的时机。该过程需要 14 天作为 Bellatrix 升级和合并之间的等待期。这个必要的时间间隔会导致网络达到其独特的总终端难度。 （TTD）。
根据以太坊核心开发者 Tim Beiko 和 Prysmatic Labs 联合创始人 Terence Tsao 的推测，大约 58750000000000000000000 的 TTD 可能会触发 Merge。他们相信很快就会获得这个 TTD 值，大约在 9 月 15 日左右。
回想一下，在多次延迟后，合并已定于 9 月 19 日发生。但一些反应表明，甚至有可能在设定日期之前完成过渡。
