Episode 16: THE MERGE with Francesco Andreoli, Matt Nelson & Admir Opardija

Right now, all everyone cares about in crypto is the MERGE. When the second largest blockchain transitions from PoW to PoS, people argue that this is the largest development in crypto since the advent of smart contracts in 2014! So of course, we had to sit down with Francesco Andreoli and Matt Nelson from Consensys and the Ethereum Foundation and Admir Opardija from Sygnum, to unwrap what exactly this means, and what changes for you! We explore questions like: What is the merge – and why is everyone so excited? How does this change the way I interact with eth? What about the PoW chain – are you anxious about the fork? What are the most annoying misconceptions about the Merge? What are the next big steps ahead? Which ones are you most looking forward to?DisclaimerBecause Sygnum is a bank and some of the information in the podcast relates to financial and investment topics, we want you to understand that we do not create a bank client relationship with you when you listen to the podcast.
