Ethereum’s Pectra Upgrade Postponed Due to Testnet Issues
- The launch of Ethereum’s Pectra upgrade has been postponed following testnet issues.
- Pectra is the largest upgrade since Ethereum’s 2022 move to proof-of-stake.
- Testing will continue on a “shadow fork” of the Holesky testnet.
- The shadow fork is expected to be operational by next week.
- Sepolia testnet experienced an error but was fixed and resumed normal operations.
The Ethereum network has delayed its Pectra upgrade due to issues on the Holesky and Sepolia testnets. Testing will proceed on a shadow fork, with developers aiming for it to be functional next week.
