The Protocol: ETH’s Fusaka Upgrade Goes Live on Hoodi, Mainnet Next
CoinDesk
Ethereum's Fusaka upgrade completed its final test on the Hoodi testnet, preparing for the mainnet hard-fork activation.Summary
The final dress rehearsal for Ethereum's upcoming Fusaka upgrade successfully occurred on the Hoodi testnet, marking the last simulation before the mainnet hard-fork activation. This upgrade, which follows the Pectra upgrade roughly six months prior, aims to improve scalability and cost-efficiency through changes like PeerDAS, which allows validators to check only data segments instead of full "blobs," reducing bandwidth demands and lowering expenses for validators and Layer-2 networks. The successful Hoodi test follows prior successful simulations on the Holesky and Sepolia testnets, with developers tentatively aiming for a December 3 mainnet launch.
