What is Ethereum Merger?

The merger is when Ethereum’s original execution layer (the mainnet that has been around since the genesis block) joins its new proof-of-stake consensus layer, the beacon chain.

The merger forgoes energy-intensive mining and instead secures the network by staking Ether. This is a truly exciting step towards realizing the vision of Ethereum - greater scalability, security and sustainability.
