The second merge test of Ethereum 2.0 is expected to take place on Saturday

According to a tweet posted by Ethereum 2.0 core developer "Dapplion," the second merge test is expected to take place on Saturday. The first rehearsal of the merge took place earlier this April. Developers implemented a so-called "shadow fork" in order to experiment with their ideas before the real shift to proof-of-stake takes place. It was expected that the major technical upgrade would take place in June. However, Ethereum developer Tim Beiko announced that the merge would take "a few months after." At this point, it seems like the second-largest blockchain will be able to finally move to the proof-of-stake consensus mechanism this fall, but there is no specific date for now. With that being said, Beiko did confirm that Ethereum was in its "final chapter" of proof-of-work.
