The Ethereum Foundation commented in a blog post that Eth2’s branding does not represent what is happening to the network during its upgrade round. It added that “ETH2” and the nomenclature that appears to distinguish a proof-of-stake chain from a proof-of-work chain could soon be phased out.
The organization cited a number of reasons for the change, including a poor mental model for new users, fraud prevention, inclusivity, and clarity. The long-awaited Ethereum transition from a proof-of-work mining model to a proof-of-stake consensus is expected to happen in Q2 or Q3 of this year.
