Affected by this news, ETH rose from 381 USDT to 408 USDT in a short period of time, with a maximum increase of 7%. With the rise of ETH, BTC also broke through the $14,000 mark again.
According to official sources, the Eth2.0 genesis block time is set to 1606824000, which is December 1, Beijing time. According to Odaily's previous reports, the creation time was initially set on January 3, the 12th anniversary of the Bitcoin creation block.
However, in order to trigger the genesis block, there are also conditions. Seven days before December 1st, at least 16,384 verifiers were born, and each verifier pledged 32 ETH, that is, there must be 524,288 ETH in the deposit contract; or if this value is reached, the creation will be generated 7 days after reaching blocks.There are still 25 days before the due date, can there be enough validators? Most likely it's fine.On the one hand, when the Eth2.0 testnet was launched before, it basically exceeded the minimum threshold for startup, and even reached millions of ETH at one point.

, 85.6% of respondents currently hold 32 ETH, and 74.8% are excited about being able to run their own nodes and validator clients to validate/stake on the Ethereum network, and 41.4% plan to participate in staking pools .
Odaily also entered the deposit contract and found that the enthusiasm of users is indeed very high, and the deposit has reached nearly 14,000 ETH within two hours of going online.
