- [x] [EIP-3675: Upgrade consensus to Proof-of-Stake](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-3675)
- [x] [EIP-4399: Supplant DIFFICULTY opcode with PREVRANDAO](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-4399)

In addition to the EIPs listed above, an [EIP-2124](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-2124) `FORK_NEXT` value must be set for the Paris upgrade to allow nodes to disconnect stale peers. In typical upgrades, this happens on the fork block. Because Paris uses a [Terminal Total Difficulty](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-3675#total-difficulty-triggering-the-upgrade) instead of a block number to trigger the proof-of-work to proof-of-stake transition, this value must be set after the transition has completed. See the [FORK NEXT Upgrade](#fork-next-upgrade) section for more details.


### Engine API

A new set of APIs is introduced as part of The Merge for the execution layer clients to communicate with the consensus layer. The specification for it is available [here](https://github.com/ethereum/execution-apis/tree/main/src/engine).

| Mainnet | TBD | TBD | TBD |

#### FORK NEXT Upgrade

Once the proof-of-work to proof-of-stake transition has completed, an additional upgrade is required to add an [EIP-2124](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-2124) `FORK_NEXT` value to clients on the network in order to disconnect stale peers.

| Network | Block Number / `FORK_NEXT` | Expected Date | Fork Hash |
|---------|------------|---------------|--------------|
| Ropsten | N/A | N/A | N/A |
| Sepolia | 1735371 | August 17, 2022 | `0xb96cbd13` |
| Goerli | TBD | TBD | TBD |
| Mainnet | TBD | TBD | TBD |

Note that [Ropsten has been deprecated](https://blog.ethereum.org/2022/06/21/testnet-deprecation/) and will not be upgraded with a `FORK_NEXT` value.
