Hi William,
What are your thoughts on Ethereum's switch from a POW to a POS blockchain? can it be done smoothly? Do you know how they plan on going about doing this?

I haven't found much info on the subject and my understanding is it will be the first blockchain to make a switch from POW to POS.

It would be an interesting development once they have completed the work on it, because it has some attractive scalability features.My understanding of POS is that it is still works in progress, and there is some ongoing research and development that continues on it. The Ethereum blog is the best place to follow it https://blog.ethereum.org/.
