As of the 4th August 2020, the “Final” testnet for Ethereum 2.0 named “Medalla” has been deployed. Unlike the other previous testnets, this test is open to the public and will allow any of the 5 clients – Prysmatic Labs’ Prysm, ChainSafe’s Lodestar, PegaSys’ Teku, Status’ Nimbus and Sigma Prime’s Lighthouse – to connect to the network and communicate with each other. Also, since it is public, network validators are not centrally coordinated by developer teams. So far, over 30,000 validators have joined the network and over 946,000 ETH has been staked. The test is expected to run until the end of this year, after which Ethereum 2.0 Phase0 will officially be deployed (mainnet). Currently, the ETH 2.0 mainnet is expected to launch in November 2020. What’s important to remember is that Ethereum 2.0 clients will not be developed by a single party – instead, it’ll have a robust developer ecosystem and 5 different client releases.
