The blockchain network security incident has once again stirred up the entire coin circle.On October 7th, Beijing time, BNBChain, one of the most active public chains in the world (public blockchain, which refers to a consensus blockchain where anyone can read, send transactions, and obtain effective confirmation) incubated by the cryptocurrency exchange, was attacked by hackers

On October 8th, IT Home reported that in the early morning of October 7th Beijing time, the smart contract platform BNBChain suffered two consecutive (2:26, 4:43) hacker attacks, washing out 2 million BNB coins in just 2 hours. This currency alone reached $566 million, and with other virtual assets, it could reach $718 million

Reporter: Cai Ding, Editor: Gao HanSince the beginning of this month, there has been a continuous turmoil in the "coin circle".After Justin Sun, founder of Tron and member of Huobi's global advisory board, was sued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on March 22, Eastern Time,On Monday, March 27th Eastern Time, the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) sued Binance, the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange, and its CEO, Zhao Changpeng, for alleged violations of regulatory measures.It is reported that CFTC filed the above-mentioned lawsuit in the Federal Court of Chicago on March 27th Eastern Time. CFTC stated that Coin An did not register with it, thus evading a series of its obligations.According to a Bloomberg report,Since at least 2021, the CFTC has been investigating whether Coin Security has failed to prevent the American public from buying and selling cryptocurrencies and their derivatives.According to CFTC rules, if a platform allows the American public to trade a certain derivative, it must be registered with that institution.Image source: TwitterAfter being sued by the US CFTC, Zhao Changpeng posted a one word tweet on his personal social media platform:fourSuspected of citing the fourth clause of its 2023 focus and recommendations released at the beginning of the year in response: IgnoreFUD, fakenews, attachments, etc, Ignoring FUD (fear, confusion, doubt) messages, fake news, malicious attacks, etcCFTC: The defendant intentionally disregarded relevant terms and regulationsAccording to a Bloomberg report,CFTCIRSSEC

On September 15th, IT Home reported that this afternoon, the Ethereum "Merge" was completed, and ETH entered the 2.0 era, transitioning completely from PoW to PoS.Currently,Ethereum is priced around $1600IT Home learned that Ethereum is a public blockchain platform, and its cryptocurrency is Ethereum ETH. Ethereum is now turning to the Proof of Rights (PoS) mechanism. For miners, if they mine on the Ethereum main network, after merging, each network will operate entirely based on the PoS proof of rights mechanism. At that time,The traditional proof-of-work (PoW) mining will no longer be available on the Ethereum network

On September 15th at 14:00, the world's second largest blockchain Ethereum "Merge" was completed, and the main network was combined with the PoS consensus layer beacon chain (Beacon chain). Merger has become one of the most important events in the history of encryption by the market. After the completion of the "merger", Ethereum has successfully "merged" from the proof-of-work to the equity certificate. The mechanism after the "merger" will bid farewell to the era of large-scale mining. Reporters from Beijing Youth Daily saw on the blockchain forum that many former blockchain "miners" were lamenting the end of an era. Will blockchain 'miners' who were once popular lose their jobs? What impact will this have on the global mining machinery industry chain?The merger will reduce energy consumption by 99.95%According to OKLink data, Ethereum, the world's most active blockchain network, triggered a merge mechanism at block height 15537393 and produced the first PoS block (height 15537394). Since then, the Ethereum consensus has officially transitioned from PoW to PoS mechanism, completing the "TheMerge" upgrade. This will bring significant changes to the Ethereum network, including a 99.95% reduction in energy consumption and a 90% reduction in ETH issuance. According to CoinMarketCap data, the real-time price of Ethereum is approximately $1590, with a price drop of approximately 1.11% within 24 hours. Afterwards, it regained the $1600 level and had a market value of over $190 billion.Merging new mechanisms to bid farewell to the era of large-scale mining machinery "mining"Ethereum is a public blockchain platform, with its cryptocurrency being Ethereum ETH. Under the traditional "proof-of-work" mechanism, in the past few years, a large number of "mine owners" have purchased high-performance graphics cards to dig ETH mines. For miners, if they mine on the Ethereum main network, after merging, each network will operate entirely based on the PoS proof of rights mechanism. At that time, the traditional proof-of-work mining will no longer be available on the Ethereum network. Ethermine, the world's largest Ethereum ore pool, announced the termination of proof-of-work related services, and will no longer follow the proof-of-work bifurcation.Ethereum originally used the PoW (proof of work) proof-of-work mechanism, and the "miners" of the node competed for the packaging right according to the computing power and obtained the packaging reward. Nowadays, relying on the PoS (proof of stack) equity proof mechanism, Ethereum bid farewell to the era of large-scale mining machines "mining". Holders can "mine" by pledging Ethereum tokens (ETH), with a pledge threshold of 32 ETHs.Will the merger of Ethereum result in a significant unemployment of traditional blockchain miners?Will the merger of Ethereum result in a significant unemployment of traditional blockchain miners?MessariThe Merge 190 POW GPU Web3
