Upgrading Ethereum
A technical handbook on Ethereum's move to proof of stake and beyond
Aka "The Eth2 Book".
This is a work in progress. It is not a small project, and will take some time to complete. I appreciate your patience.
Editions
- Edition 0.2: Bellatrix [WIP]
- The Bellatrix edition describes the currently active Eth2 specification. It remains work in progress, and there is much yet to be done.
- Edition 0.1: Altair
- The Altair edition is now frozen as-is and is for historical interest only.
- My original Phase 0 Annotated Specification remains available elsewhere for historical interest.
The latest version is always at https://eth2book.info/latest. It currently points to the Bellatrix edition.
The source material is available on GitHub.

Any whales or large treasuries out there, I encourage you to take a look at the Protocol Guild which supports the people developing and maintaining our incredible technology, not just writing about it.
