What is ETH2.0?

ETH2.0 is the planned replacement for Ethereum. Over the next several years, ETH2.0’s designers intend to completely subsume Ethereum’s consensus system and state altogether. With such a broad scope, we can’t say precisely what ETH2.0 will or will not include. We do have a few specs, and quite a few teams working on early implementations. At this point, the ETH2.0 designers tentatively plan to include sharding, Casper, state rent, and an eWASM VM. Initial client testing is underway, and a feature-light ETH2.0 testnet is expected to launch within three months (Q1 2019). At first, ETH2.0 will source its Ether (but not its security) from the main Ethereum chain, but designers eventually plan to invert the relationship by making ETH2.0 the main chain, and Ethereum 1.X a shard chain under its management.
