Soon after Ethereum‘s Union redesign was finished in the early long stretches of September 15, for example the Ethereum network changed from verification of-work (PoW) to evidence of-agreement (PoS), a few persuasive Bitcoin maximalists (or “maxis” for short) communicated their response to this occasion.

Ethereum maker Vitalik Buterin referred to this effective redesign as “a defining moment for the Ethereum biological system, and normally seemed charmed like the remainder of the Ethereum people group:

And we finalized! Happy merge all. This is a big moment for the Ethereum ecosystem. Everyone who helped make the merge happen should feel very proud today.— vitalik.eth (@VitalikButerin) September 15, 2022

Nonetheless, a few notable Bitcoin maxis, who for the most part trust that — except for fiat-supported stablecoins like Tie ($USDT) — Bitcoin is the main real cryptographic money, rushed to communicate that they were not intrigued by Ethereum’s transition to PoS agreement.

The following are a couple of models:

I can’t help but feel that the Ethereum Merge is their S2X moment. Where #bitcoin defended against a push for centralisation, Ethereum has failed.

The consequences will likely be felt some time down the road.

Etheruem has officially merged and moved towards PoS which means it will never be able to go carbon negative. #Bitcoin will achieve carbon negative status by the end of 2024.— Dennis Porter (@Dennis_Porter_) September 15, 2022

Bitcoin advocate Udi Wertheimer reprimanded Bitcoin maxis for their assaults on Ethereum on Union day:

high profile #bitcoin maxis tweeting half-baked anti-PoS propaganda, smack in the middle of merge day, is so sad could’ve just talked about something else or said nothing instead they’re reactive, panicking, and confused the cult is falling apart— Udi Wertheimer (@udiWertheimer) September 14, 2022
