Anthony Sassano (sassal0x), the co-founder of EthHub, a “fundamentals-focused, open source, community-driven” organization dedicated to conducting Ethereum-related research, has revealed that a new proposal for Eth 2.0 has been submitted. Eth 2.0, a system-wide upgrade to the Ethereum blockchain, will most likely include a major change in the cryptocurrency platform’s consensus algorithm - as it will be switched from the current proof-of-work (PoW)-based protocol to a proof-of-stake (PoS)-powered mechanism.
