The Ethereum 2.0 deposit contract won't be released until November, Ethereum Foundation researcher Danny Ryan said during a recent episode of Bankless Podcast.
Ryan stated that the team is waiting on an audit for a critical crypto library, BLST, from audit firm NCC Group. He added that the library is crucial for creating keys and signing messages so if this is wrong it could cause serious problems in genesis deposits.
Ethereum 2.0 core researchers expect for the deposit contract, a one-way Ethereum smart contract that holds staked ether (ETH) necessary for securing the new Proof-of-Stake (PoS) network, to be released in November.
