I've been hearing a lot about Ethereum and its transition to a new consensus mechanism. I'm curious if Ethereum has already switched to Proof of Stake (PoS) or if it's still using Proof of Work (PoW). Can someone clarify this for me?

With Proof of Stake, validators stake their Ethereum tokens to participate in the consensus process, replacing the energy-intensive mining process used in PoW.
