With less than 2 days (hopefully) until the big event, we see this question coming up again and again: Will The Ethereum Merge double your coins?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

For anyone unaware of it yet, The Merge is one of the biggest crypto events of the year. There are even speculations about it triggering the next crypto bull run! \ud83d\ude2f<\/span><\/p>\n

And as with any event of such scale, confusion can spread very quickly.. In addition to coin doubling, people also ask what will happen to other Ethereum-based tokens and if the gas fees will plummet with The Merge.<\/span><\/p>\n

In this article we will answer these questions once and for all, so you can focus on investing, rather than searching for answers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s start with the basics on the upcoming fork.\ud83d\udc47<\/span><\/p>\n

What is the fork anyway?<\/b><\/h2>\n

As we discussed before, during The Merge Ethereum<\/a> will be transitioning from proof-of-work to proof-of-stake architecture. This means that there will no longer be a need for miners to run computations in order to approve transactions on the blockchain.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Instead, transactions will be validated by users, based on how much ETH they have staked back into the blockchain. And though this switch is what gives The Merge its benefits, some big crypto miners are pushing against this change.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
