Etherium developers launch Kintsugi test network for transition to PoS
One of the leading developers of Ethereum 2.0, Tim Beiko, announced the successful launch of the Kintsugi test network, which will help better refine the transition to Proof-of-Stake and Ethereum 2.0.
Tim Bako wrote on Twitter that the development team has been "working tirelessly" over the past few months on the process of transitioning to Ethereum 2.0. Once the Kintsugi test network is launched, users will be able to begin prototyping on that network.
"We recommend connecting and starting testing and prototyping on Kintsugi in order to detect possible problems as soon as possible," Beiko stressed.
After testing on Kintsugi, the developers plan to launch another series of test networks. All existing test networks will then be upgraded to Etherium 2.0 and, after the upgrade is worked out, the main Etherium network will also be switched to Proof-of-Stake.
