Merge Updates

Sepolia testnet becon chain launch – 20th June

Sepolia merge – around June end.

Difficulty bomb delay hard fork (EIP 5133) – 29th June, announcement and blog post next week.

Bomb will most likely be delayed to 15th August 2022.

This is mainly due to 18sec blocks that are expected by end of this month.

This change is very small in terms of dev work and will not affect any merge progress.
