How To Stay Informed About The Merge With Infura

We want to ensure our community and customers are prepared for the fast-approaching Merge. Learn all the ways you can connect with us about the Merge in this blog.

With the Merge likely to happen between  late summer and early fall, we want to be sure all Infura users are prepared. We especially want to ensure solo stakers have the instructions and resources they require to continue running their nodes smoothly.

Below is a list of all the channels we’ve prepared for you to stay informed about the Merge and get in touch with the Infura team.

Community Survey

The purpose of the Community Survey is to understand the general community sentiment and identify where we can help.

You can start by letting us know how you are preparing for the Merge and what you’d like help with by completing this short survey.

We will also use this information in order to help prepare additional topics for our workshop sessions to ensure you feel prepared for this monumental event.

Weekly Merge Workshops

In collaboration with teams at ConsenSys, as well as ecosystem partners and friends, we will be hosting weekly workshops throughout July and August to provide regular updates and information sessions on the Merge.

Our first workshop, The Merge Overview: Where We Are and Where We’re Going, will take place July 12th at 9am PST / 12pm EST and be broadcast from the ConsenSys Crowdcast. RSVP here.

We encourage all Infura users to be part of our workshops, but especially encourage solo stakers to attend since we’ll have tailored information and instruction for you related to your node operations post-Merge.

Here is the workshop schedule:

July 12 - The Merge Overview: Where We Are and Where We're Going

July 19th - Solo Stakers Forum: What You Need To Do To Get Ready

July 26th - MEV Considerations and Factors

August 2nd - The Execution Client and the Consensus Client

August 9th - Running Multiple Validators and Staking as a Service

August 16th - DApp Developer Considerations

Follow ConsenSys on Crowdcast to receive updated information about when sessions will start and to view the recordings of past sessions. We will also post all information on the ConsenSys Merge Knowledge Base.

Weekly Twitter Space

We’ll be hanging out on Twitter Spaces every Monday at 9am PST / 12pm EST, starting July 18th at noon Eastern Daylight time to discuss the latest news about the Merge and answer your questions directly. The agenda for these Twitter Spaces will be very similar to the above workshops. Follow Infura on Twitter to stay updated, RSVP, and tune in.

Discord

Join our Discord and go to the-merge channel to participate in AMAs. We’ll let you know the AMAs schedule via email and Twitter: @Infura and @ConsenSys.

Community Calls & Chris Anatalio Office Hours

We’ll have dedicated segments at the monthly Infura Community Call to go over key information about the Merge.
Chris Anatalio, Infura’s Dev Rel, will also discuss the Merge and how he can help you feel prepared in his monthly Office Hours. You can sign up here.
