Medalla Testnet Launches Tomorrow
Last Friday, the minimum pledge standard for launching Medalla was reached (requiring 16,000+ verifiers), that is to say, the creation time of Medalla is set atUnix time1596546008, which is 8 seconds after 1pm UTC on August 4th. If the reader wants to know how the creation time is calculated, please read Ben EdgingtonExplanatory article on the genesis of the Beacon Chain。

The release of Medalla is an important milestone in the development of eth2 - if Mdella is running stably, the next step will be the mainnet release. At the same time, the Medalla test network has condensed the hard work of countless engineers, R&D personnel and community members over the years. We sincerely hope that you are as excited as we are :).

Congratulations to the above teams! I hope that there are users who use the above clients to run nodes. Don’t forget to thank the client team. It would be even better if you can consider rewarding some ETH or DAI as a tip. They get much more than that.
do not forget! When Medalla launches, each client has its own unique commemorative medalPOAPNFT, use any client to run a node to get rewards. Click here to learn morefirst level title

andsubredditanddiscord server, to provide a place for those staking enthusiasts to communicate.
Over the past week, I've spent some time researching the discord, where users share information, ask (and answer) technical questions, and mostly discuss new technologies and eth2 staking. If readers have participated in staking on the testnet Medalla or are interested in participating, be sure to check it out.

Thanks Martin SwendeFound a critical bug on Prysm SSZ decoding, the vulnerability allows an attacker to remotely crash a node on prysm-attack-0 (no bounty was awarded since Martin works on the security department of the Ethereum Foundation).
$5000 bounty awarded to AlexSSD7 for executing on prysm-attack-0L4 DDoS attack, thereby stopping the finalization of the 4-node network. This attack reminds us of clock skewers, as they prevent nodes from self-healing after being attacked.
