‘95% Confidence’: Ethereum Developers Pencil In July 2020 for Eth 2.0 Launch

[Zed0X]

Like what the title suggests, Ethereum developers are "quite" confident but cannot give any assurance of the actual date to launch. One developer is certain that the phase 0 will be launched this year though.

Phase 0 will certainly launch in 2020. Audits are out and testnets are getting stronger every week,” Ryan said in the discussion thread. “I don't see a reality in which Phase 0 does not launch in 2020.

For the reason of the further delay, the team has this to say during their reddit AMA

the network won’t launch until three clients can run testnets consistently for a minimum of eight weeks

Regardless of the dates, we can safely say that the team is getting closer and closer. I think that's the most important right now. I'm pretty sure some will be disappointed but many will still be pleased at how the team is making sure they got everything tested before finally launching.
