Ethereum Pectra upgrade live on testnet, but mainnet may face delays
Ethereum’s Pectra upgrade was successfully deployed on the Sepolia testnet, but developers may delay the mainnet launch due to unresolved issues on Holesky.
Ethereum’s highly anticipated Pectra upgrade was successfully deployed on its final testnet, Sepolia, marking a major milestone in the lead-up to the mainnet activation. However, potential delays remain as developers continue to address outstanding issues from a previous testnet failure.
Ethereum’s Pectra upgrade has gathered significant community support as it aims to improve Ether (ETH) staking, layer-2 (L2) network scalability and overall network capacity.
Pectra was successfully rolled out on its final testnet, Sepolia, at 7:29 am UTC on March 5.
