以太坊合併是什麼？它如何改變了網絡？

The most immediate and profound impact of The Merge was its effect on the environment. The move to PoS resulted in a staggering 99.95% reduction in Ethereum’s energy consumption . This wasn't a minor change; it took the network's annual energy use, which was once comparable to that of a small country, down to the level of a single household. This transformation silenced years of criticism and made Ethereum a leader in the sustainable tech movement, paving the way for mainstream and ESG（環境、社會與公司治理）投資者將 ETH 視為一項可行的資產。這是技術與永續性可以共存的一項強力聲明。
