The Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-in) which falls under the Minister of Electronics and Information Technology, issued a new directive on Thursday, forcing crypto exchanges, virtual private network (VPN) providers, and data centers to store a wide range of user data for up to five years.

Under the newly issued directive, crypto exchanges operating in India will be required to store customers’ names, ownership patterns, contact information, and different other information.

Crypto exchanges and VPN services providers are also required to report any cyber incident within six hours of its occurrence and must hand over the collected data to the authorities upon order.

“When required by order/direction of CERT-In, for cyber incident response, protective and preventive actions related to cyber incidents, the service provider/intermediary/data center/body corporate is mandated to take action or provide information or any such assistance to CERT-In.”

What is the Ethereum Merge? : All you need to know about Ethereum Merge 2.0

The Ethereum Merge is the joining of Ethereum’s proof-of-stake (PoS) Beacon chain with the Ethereum Mainnet to transition the Ethereum blockchain off the legacy Proof-of-work (PoW) system. This will bring about a 99.95% decrease in Ethereum’s energy utilization, and the capacity to additional scale the Ethereum environment. It will bring about Ethereum 2.0, another adaptation of Ethereum. Currently, there are two independent blockchains for Ethereum operating in isolation. These are the current proof-of-work (POW) Ethereum chain and a separate proof-of-stake Beacon Chain. The Merge means to emphatically work on the effectiveness of the Ethereum platform by eliminating the requirement for energy-concentrated mining. It rather permits a network of validators to assume control over the job of block production and consensus.
