 ## Responsibilites during the Merge transition

+Honest validators will not utilize the external builder network during the transition from proof-of-work to
+proof-of-stake. This requirement is in place to reduce the overall technical complexity of the Merge.
+
+Concretely, honest validators **MUST** wait until the transition has been finalized before
+they can start querying the external builder network. See [EIP-3675](eip-3675) for further details about the transition
+process itself.
