The Evolution of ETH 2.0 with Teku’s Ben Edgington

This week James and Anna chat with Ben Edgington, Lead Product Manager for Teku, an Eth2 client developed by ConsenSys. Ben recounts his story of the involvement with Ethereum 2.0 from the very early months of Serenity and Shasper, and how those were completely replaced by the Beacon Chain concept that resulted in Ethereum 2.0 as we know it. Ben then highlights what changed after Phase 0 launch: the simplification of Phase 1 & 2 , the rollup-centric roadmap and the upcoming Merge with Eth1.Here are some links for this episode:ETH2.0 Update With Danny Ryan, Zero Knowledge Episode 66Sharding Update With Prysmatic Labs, Zero Knowledge Episode 37Exploring Uniswap V3 and a Multi-L2 Future with Noah and Moody, Zero Knowledge Episode 185Math competitions, crypto as alchemy & Gasper with Yan Zhang, Zero Knowledge Episode 136Unwrapping Optimism with Ben and Mark, Zero Knowledge Episode 177Ben’s What’s New in Eth2 NewsletterBen’s and Vitalik’s annotated Eth2 SpecsDon’t forget to check out the ZK Jobs Board if you’re looking to connect and work with a talented team in crypto & zk land!
