Google gets in on Ethereum Merge excitement with nifty easter egg

, tech juggernaut Google is marking the time left until the upgrade with a new countdown timer.

Typing any variation of"Ethereum Merge" or"The Merge" into the search engine shows a countdown ticker, with the estimated time left until the Merge based on the current difficulty, hash rate, and merge difficulty. Off to the side is a cartoon of two happy pandas running toward each other with outstretched hands, which supposedly will get closer as the Merge date draws nearer.Google Cloud developer Sam Padilla in a Sept. 9 tweet said the timer was"a fun little" and a way to show their appreciation of"the work that has been going into this for years."

He said the work was done by Google’s search and labs team, but noted that he helped “kickstart” the idea and discussion that led to the timer being implemented. In the same post, Padilla explained the timer is directly connected to the blockchain, updating the countdown in real-time, stating:He also hinted that pandas get closer as the Merge date approaches, but made a tongue-in-cheek statement, saying: “But you didn’t hear that from me.”

I always knew Google was on board.

That makes me want to buy more dips on finex

why everyonee was hiding this from us?

the whole community is excited for the merge, and it's even bringing in new users to tokens like ETH and MATIC that have completed an ecosystem with the latter breaking down gas fees and making eth as sustainable as can be

doesn't work for anything else than google english btw
