The Beacon chain went live in December, 2020 and has been running without issues.

It now has about 4 Million ETH locked and staking which cannot be withdrawn - that's almost $8 billion worth of ETH locked until the move to PoS happens. Which means now there is some real pressure to make it happen soon enough (between 8-15 months).

The situation now with the Beaconchain live and running is very different from the past 4 years of research and planning.
