Merge with Ethereum’s mainnet, Proof of Stake Beacon Chain, is scheduled to happen next month. This process began with the completion of the first testnet Ropsten merger in early June. At the beginning of July, the second testnet was migrated to Sepolia. Finally, Goerli, the last work before Ethereum Merge, has been left behind.
