Ethereum 2.0, with its transition from Proof of Work (PoW) to Proof of Stake (PoS), aims to improve scalability, energy efficiency, and transaction speed. This upgrade strengthens Ethereum’s position as the leading smart contract platform, addressing issues like high gas fees and network congestion. With PoS, Ethereum becomes more eco-friendly and potentially more attractive to developers and institutional investors. While there are competing platforms like Solana and Polkadot, Ethereum's upgrade ensures it remains a strong contender, attracting both new projects and established dApps looking for scalability without compromising security.
