The Merge, according to Ethereum developers, is meant to move to PoS with zero downtime due to the total terminal difficulty (TTD), which ensures the transition based on the total mining power that goes into establishing a chain. Despite the explanation, FTX decided to halt “deposits and withdrawals until the Merge is finished and networks are stable.”
