Devs To Launch Ethereum 2.0 Public Testnet In Two Weeks

According to coordinator Danny Ryan, the launch of the public test network Ethereum 2.0 will take place in two weeks. He emphasizes that we would not want to launch a more coordinated test network until we approve the specifications for version 0.9.

Adrian Manning, the developer of the Lighthouse client for Ethereum 2.0, says that he was working on a public test network capable of interacting with the first version of Ethereum. According to information published by Ryan on GitHub, a deposit contract is currently being standardized which will allow funds to be transferred from the first version of Ethereum to the second.
