Ethereum Proof of Stake Release Date


I’m getting a lot of questions about when Ethereum switches to Proof of Stake (PoS), the answer is based on Vitalik Buterin’s Responses.
To make a book short, it is scheduled for the summer of 2017, but as always Ethereum seems to be late on all their predictions. So we can assume that the switch to PoS will happen between July 2017 and January 2018.
Untill this point, i would like a confirmation from Vitalik Buterin himself to confirm this.

  1. it is 2018 after you made this video and still pos is not released ,so now how long still you think it takes to release pos

  2. BuriedOne Blockchain, so it would be possible to start mining mid-summer and mine throughout after the anouncement of proof-of-stake though less profitable? Or mining will not be used, as I heard someone say?

  3. PROOF OF STAKE is the EXACT digital version of the fiat monetary system we currently have now. DON'T BE FOOLED!!!! Please… Please… Please… Spread the message!

  4. Bitcoin and Ethereum do pseudo-calculations… But !!!! I just read in this german article that "the golem network" wants to use clockchain principles to build up a big decentralized supercomputer, for services… So when someone wants to create thing like this, he or she has to pay out the network (feed-in) operators (miners)… It's very similar to operators feeding in power into the electric power grid… Just in this case it is computing power…

  5. As soon as PoS happens I predict there's going to be a massive panic dump and nearly all Ether will be in the hands of "professionals" like current mining pool owners. Thus, taking away from the decentralization of hobbyist miners. Kind of pointless in my opinion because hobbyists won't stand a chance to mint coins against massive pools. Buterin's already made his fortune, so what does he care? The community will realize that plenty of other coins can be gpu mined and I wouldn't doubt new coins will pop up too and take ethereums place. Take UBIQ for example.

  6. Good morning, with your knowledge that you think

  7. So, let me get this straight, when PoS takes into action, we lose money? Like, I don't quite get it. What does Proof of Stake even mean?
