v1.0 spec launch
Immediately, we launched v1.0 of the eth2 specs, together with the mainnet deposit contract tackle — 0x00000000219ab540356cBB839Cbe05303d7705Fa. eth2 could have a MIN_GENESIS_TIME of 1606824000 (or for these of you who don’t assume in unix time — December 1, 2020, 12pm UTC).
To set off genesis at the moment, there have to be a minimum of 16384 32-ETH validator deposits 7 days previous to December 1. If not, genesis might be triggered 7 days after this threshold has been met (at any time when that could be). For a extra detailed dialogue of how genesis is kicked off, see Ben Edgington’s genesis writeup.
As a further utility, our buddies at ENS configured depositcontract.eth to resolve to0x00000000219ab540356cBB839Cbe05303d7705Fa, renewed the area till 2150, and burned the possession.
