And this security is one of the focal points of switch to Ethereum 2.0 which will gradually put its miners out of work, for the benefit of l’option de staking which will be the new standard. This leaves a bitter taste to minors who have the impression of be exploited until the validation of this transition scheduled for the end of the year.
An awkwardly timed EIP
Some explain thatEthereum has nothing in common with Bitcoin and that trying to simulate the rate of inflation makes no sense. Because they are indeed two very different tools which definitely do not have the same utility. However, minors are not opposed to this type of reduction required. In particular becauseEthereum does not benefit from regular deadlines de type halving.
