The Merge will still reduce the network's energy consumption by an estimated 99.5%. According to a new clarification by the Ethereum Foundation on Wednesday, the network's upcoming proof-of-stake transitory upgrade — dubbed the "Merge," — will not reduce gas fees. Regarding this, the Ethereum Foundation wrote: "Gas fees are a product of network demand relative to the network's capacity. The Merge deprecates the use of proof-of-work, transitioning to proof-of-stake for consensus, but does not significantly change any parameters that directly influence network capacity or throughput."The....
The Free TON community declares achieving sufficient decentralization and mainnet status as a consequence on December 22, 2020.
