We have now entered the FINAL STAGE of MERGE prep

Mainnet shadow fork 4 was merged yesterday with no issues for any client. This means all the technical issues with the Merge are resolved!

AND TODAY on the all core dev (ACD) call, Ethereum core devs decided to start the process of merging public testnets. Node operators will now start upgrading their nodes, starting with Ropsten around June 8th.

Merge prep is in its final stage now, if all goes well, we could be looking at PoS transition around mid-August 2022
