Speed vs Quality? High Optimism for Ethereum 2.0, But a Long Road Ahead
Ethereum has consistently followed its roadmap for continuous development toward a proof-of-stake consensus protocol and laid a solid foundation for Ethereum 2.0 in 2020. This smart contract blockchain has firmly established its platform and gained support from ETH, the world's second-largest cryptocurrency, and has become a primary resource for developers to build blockchain-based applications and tools. The rise of decentralized finance has largely been built on the Ethereum blockchain, adding credibility to the platform's decentralized functionality.
