Satoshi BTCs now rebranded to CORE Mining is a Turing-complete Blockchain leveraging the Bitcoin (BTC) mining hash rate and the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). The core is powered by a new consensus mechanism, Satoshi Plus which applies a protocol-driven validator election mechanism to combine the optional features of Proof of Work (PoW) and Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) to ensure the maximization of security, scalability, and decentralization. The rapid development of Bitcoin which makes its value rise millions of times in ten years has made only a few people caught up with Bitcoin and this is not in line with Satoshi Nakamoto's fair wealth creation and protection of wealth spirit and this now led to the birth of Core Coin (BTCs). CORE Chain Satoshi Bookkeeping smart contract using Bitcoin computing power, connecting 'Smart Contract' with Bitcoin's 'Proof of Work' PoW to leverage the strength of each while simultaneously ameliorating their respective sho
The transition known as "the Merge" has been finalized, Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin confirmed on Thursday. The new Ethereum consensus mechanism sees a reduction in energy consumption to about 99%

Happy merge all. This is a big moment for the Ethereum ecosystem. Everyone who helped make the merge happen should feel very proud today.
However, analysts have raised concern over the increased centralization of the ETH 2 that relatively few entities dominate the Proof of Stake Mechanism now.
Martin Koppelmann co-founder of DeFi platform Gnosis tweeted " The top entities controlling 2/3 of the stake is pretty disappointing to see tbh."
Out of the last 1000 blocks, 420 have been built by just Lido and Coinbase.

His tweets show a chart where Lido and Coinbase top the Ethereum staking service as Lido handles more than 27 per cent of stake-based Ethereum validation and the popular crypto exchange platform Coinbase with more than 14 per cent.
As of the time of writing this line, Lido is the largest staker of Ethereum with 4.16 million Eth (30.1%) follow by kraken with 854,400 Eth (6.18%) while the remaining stakers classified as "other," have 3.65 million Eth (26.5%) according to Dune Analytics report.
The transition to PoS stir up the SEC reaction warning that a merged update might turn ETH into security. After the congressional hearing on Thursday, the SEC chair Gary Gentler said that crypto assets and intermediaries that allow users to "stake" will have to pass the Shower Test to determine whether that asset is a security or not. The Howey test determines whether the investors expect a return on the work of third parties.
However, Gensler said that he wasn't referring to any cryptocurrency at this point. But the announcement coming soon post the Merge upgrade could ring some bells, as per the WSJ report
