The first Ethereum merge panda meme! 🐼

The two lovely bears perform The Dragon Ball Z "fusion dance" and merge into a super panda. It is also an educational infographic of EL + CL = Ethereum ❤️

hsiaowei.eth used the meme template to create this meme on Aug 29, 2021. By that time, there was the Eth1 chain (Proof-of-Work chain) and Eth2 chain (Proof-of-Stake beacon chain) while Ethereum was transitioning to a complete Proof-of-Stake system. The ideas were to show that Eth1 and Eth2 client software were equally important and to evolve the terminologies "Eth1" and "Eth2" with "Execution Layer" and "Consensus Layer" components in the merged system.

🏘❤️ This meme is being presented to the community as part of New Home of the Heart - a Merge NFT exhibition and sale organized by Stateful Works and JPG. To see the beneficiary split on-chain, go here https://app.0xsplits.xyz/accounts/0xc521077fa5AF161c88A945da5c00DE1022B1e859/
