BEACON CHAIN

Beacon chain is an improvement to the Ethereum network introduced in the first stage of ETH2.0. The Beacon Chain introduces a Proof-of-Stake consensus mechanism to the network which allows ETH holders to stake their ETH and become validators in ETH2.0. This enables validators to validate and confirm transactions on the network.
