Haven't they been saying POS will be "ready soon" for years? Seems like maybe vaporware used for hype?
"The Ethereum proof of stake date has been set for December 1, 2020.
While the proof of stake Ethereum date was originally set for January 2020, this deadline was missed."

- robcohen 5y agoPoS is already working in Cardano, Tezos, and Algorand (among others).
- tedunangst 5y agoThere's a button you can click to stake ethereum on Coinbase, which seems a bit past the vapor stage.

Some HN users are staking Eth and earning on Eth 2.0 contract, which functions on the Beacon Chain. Both chains have not been merged yet, far from vaporware so I guess last decade called and wants its arguments back.
