🚀 Ethereum's consensus layer might get a facelift! At Devcon in Bangkok, researcher Justin Drake proposed swapping the Beacon Chain for a new "Beam Chain." He insists it's not as wild as it sounds, likening it to trading in your old flip phone for a sleek smartphone. 📱

Drake suggests slashing the staking requirement from 32 ETH to just 1 ETH, making it easier for folks to join the validator club. While some are dubbing it "ETH 3.0," Drake says it's more like a consensus makeover. Stay tuned as the Ethereum community weighs in on this bold proposal!
