The Ethereum cryptocurrency is increasing its dominance against Bitcoin and has rebounded from its price bottom by more than 100%, compared to Bitcoin's still 'modest' rally of just over 40%.
- Ethereum's final tests on the Goerli network were successful. The probability of the second largest cryptocurrency moving to version 2.0 as planned by the developers has increased;
- The developers' work proceeded in two phases, starting with the August 4 Bellatrix update. The success of Bellatrix allowed the Paris update to be launched today when the Terminal Total Difficulty on the Goerli network reached 10,790,000;
- Ultimately, the transition to version 2.0 will gradually freeze the supply of more Ether. September 13 is the date of the so-called difficulty bomb, which will eventually force miners to stop mining new ETH.
