The purpose of this upgrade is to ensure validators are producing updated Beacon Chain blocks that will set up the codebase ahead of the Merge. “Whats happening today is the Bellatrix hard fork, which *prepares* the chain for the merge,” Vitalik Buterin, founder of Ethereum, sinabi in a Tweet. “Still important though — make sure to update your clients!” Around 5% of the Beacon Chains validating nodes failed to update in time, ayon sa Adrian Sutton, lead blockchain protocol engineer at ConsenSys, but that has no major effect on the network and is likely to be quickly remedied. Once the terminal total difficulty (TTD) is reached, mining on Ethereum will end completely, and ‘the Merge’ will take place — known as the Paris upgrade. Technically that is scheduled, not at a fixed time, but after a TTD of 58750000000000000000000 is reached and the first PoS block is created on the Ethereum
