    The goerli fork finalized! :D dora.goerli.ethpandaops.io After the fix was patched in, the validators came back online and the chain started finalizing again. The MEV circuitbreaker automatically disables and mev-blocks have started flowing through as well. Yay client diversity!

    The Goerli testnet will merge in the next ~2 days, this will be the last testnet to merge before mainnet. If you are running a Goerli node, please update and follow the numerous guides to ensure we can have a smooth merge. More information here: notes.ethereum.org/@launchpad/nod…

    Mainnet-Shadow-Fork-4 looks perfect! All clients went through the transition without a hitch. Only erigon missing (unrelated sync issues, we'll know in a bit if its synced to head as expected) We finalized and just keep chugging! #TestingTheMerge

    After 4 days of PoW, merge-devnet-5 hit TTD today. The chain continued finalizing post TTD, as expected. This means the merge was successful. We ran a few zombie miners. Miners ran older versions that don't know about TTD and just continue mining post TTD. No issues were found.

    merge-devnet-5 has been launched. The beaconchain genesis happens at 4PM UTC and the PoW chain has already been launched. The TTD has been set to be really high to allow everyone to join pre-merge. Tooling can be found here: devnet5.themerge.dev

    The merge pandas have arrived! mainnet-shadow-fork-1 hit TTD ~half an hour ago. We've been finalizing and producing blocks! We quickly noticed some seemingly minor issues with Nethermind and Besu(triage ongoing). Erigon is currently syncing to head, status update later.

    Wondering what the #TestingTheMerge team has been up to? The aim of the Kiln merge testnet was to allow the community to practice running their nodes, deploying contracts, testing infrastructure, etc. We hope it's helping the community get a sense of the post merge world!

    The Holesky fork ran into a configuration issue on 3 majority clients on the network. The minority clients however continued to produce valid blocks. The issue has been identified and the fixes are now up, so please update your client. More info in 🧵(1/13)

    Holesky and other testnets exist to find issues. Excited that Reth & Erigon worked well, and IMO NBD for other teams. Shit happens. We fix and keep shipping as one team. Highly recommend Reth in prod. Would it have been better had no client had a bug? Sure. Was the bug easy
