After successfully deploying and testing our candidate test network on Prater, the rocket pool will be released to Mainnet.

After the second Rocket Pool V2.5 open beta, audits from multiple sources will start with a code and feature freeze. Both smart contracts and infrastructure will be audited and tested.

More than a second month of testing on the new Pyrmont ETH2 testing network follows Medalla's therapeutic fever. Along with the smart contract changes, significant smart node stack improvements have been introduced.

Use a real ETH2 client for real-time testing on Medalla, the first major ETH2 testing network. Beta was a huge success with over 500,000 Testnet ETH and over 650 node operators from 88 time zones participating!

We first use our rETH token to introduce the new concept of tokenized stakes. Tokens that earn wager rewards based on the performance of a decentralized network of nodes.

Ethereum will be replaced with a new PoS system with a beacon chain. Rocket Pool is releasing a new beta that is compatible with our new 2.0 platform and allows anyone to run nodes in it.

The first beta version of Rocket Pool ran on its own test network, using the LiveCasper contract. The shortened Casper setting allows anyone in the public to test betting in the Casper pool for the first time.

The first open source version of Rocket Pool, an Alpha version, has been developed, can be run by anyone, and is open source, so anyone can see it in action and try it out for themselves.

According to The Casper specification published by Vitalik Buterin in the Lavender Paper in September 2016, the rocket pool was developed as a preliminary proof-of-concept.
