Armiarma: Ethereum2 Network Monitoring Tool
Achieving the equilibrium between scalability, sustainability and security has prevailed as the ideal solution for decentralized blockchain applications over the last years. Several approaches have been proposed being Ethereum a solid proposal among them. Ethereum is on the path of a major protocol improvement called Ethereum 2.0 (Eth2), implementing Sharding and introducing the Proof-of-Stake (PoS). As the change of consensus mechanism is a delicate matter, this improvement will be achieved through different phases, the first of which is the implementation of the Beacon Chain. The implementation of the latest has been stated with the recent launch of the Eth2 main net. In this work, we introduce an Eth2 network monitor tool, called Armiarma, used to generate a complete analysis of the p2p network of the Eth2 main net. In this paper, we present some of the results of what this Eth2 network monitor can achieve.
