Delay of the ice age-participants of the Ethereum network are preparing for the upcoming upgrade of the Arrow glacier-technology

The Ethereum network will soon be subjected to a planned upgrade called "Arrow Glacier", a change that aims to imitate the upgrade "Muir Glacier". Essentially, the Arrow Glacier from Ethereum changes the parameters of the delay of the Difficulty Bomb on June 2022. This gives the Ethereum network for another six months until it leads to the "Ice Age" Proof-of-Stake (POS) transition.
Arrow Glacier aims to move the ice age from Ethereum
With an Ethereum block height of 13,773,000, the network is the pfeil-gltscher-upgrade To move bomb from Ethereum. The bomb mechanism has been around since 2015 and increases the mining difficulty of the network over time. The end result will lead to the ice age, a moment when the blockchain stops the production of proof-of-work (Pow) blocks and the chain is 100 % dependent on the proof-of-stake (POS) consensus.
The difficulty bomb should be 4,000,000 blocks or 611 days after the muir- upgrade. Arrow Glacier will continue to push the bomb back to June 2022. This gives the Ethereum-Pow-Minern for another six months in order to continue mines the Ethereum blockchain until the change in June 2022. As soon as the Difficulty Bomb happens, the mining difficulty will lead to Pow-Miner leaking because it gets too difficult.
Arrow Glacier is expected to take place until Wednesday, December 8, 2021. "The network upgrade of the Arrow Glacier changes, similar to the Muir Glacier, the parameters of the ice age/difficulty bomb and shift them by several months," explain the Ethereum developers. "This was also carried out in the network upgrades of Byzantium, Constantinople and London. No further changes are introduced as part of Arrow Glacier." The announcement adds:
The Difficulty Bomb only affects Proof-of-Work networks and therefore only exists in the Ethereum-Minnet and in the Ropsten test network. With the recent progress With regard to the transition from Ethereum to the Proof-of-Stake, the bomb in the Maine was decided and trying to to carry out the proof-of-stake transition to Ropsten before the bomb explodes in this network.
Ethereum Hashrate reaches all -time high, ether is the second -profound coin for me in 2021
While the participants of the Ethereum network have long been waiting for the transition from Ice Age POS, the Ethereum miners enjoy the pow incentives. In the early morning hours of December 7th Hashrate from Ethereum reached 1 petahash per second (ph/s). The recorded metric is the highest that the Hashrates ever had, and currently the computing power of Ethereum is triggering 900 Terahash per second (Th/S).
Also, also kadena (kda) mining, Ethereum (ETH) mining is currently the second -profound cryptocurrency today to me. At $ 0.12 per kilowatt hour (kWh) and today's Ether changes, a machine with 1,500 megahash can earn around $ 91 per day per second. MINING EHEREUM With the most profitable ether mining rig, 68.85% is more profitable than mining bitcoin (btc) with the currently most powerful SHA256-Bitcoin-Miner, which achieves a profit of over $ 28 a day.
