SEPOLIA is the last major test before the planned launch of the Update in Mainnet in the first half of April. The final date will be determined during the All Core Developers conference on March 6.
The developers were simulated in a load -netet, close to the parameters of the main network.
PECTRA activation in Sepolia follows the similar actions in Holesky on February 24, which at some stage led to a failure with the finalization of the slots “because of the configuration problem on three main clients”. Experts have released a update for software.
Despite the bugs found, the team did not tolerate the deployment of the SEPOLIA for a later date.
PECTRA is formed from the names of two previously planned Prague updates (for execution) and Electra (for consensus level).
Eips include improvements in the context of account abstraction, make significant changes in the operation of validators, and are aimed at increasing the overall productivity of the network.
Earlier, the security team opened a Bunti program for stress testing by Hardfort by March 24 with a prize fund of $ 2 million.
Recall that Ethereum faces “intense competition” by competing blockchain projects such as Solana, according to JPMorgan analysts.
In February, the developers emphasized the expediency of reducing the frequency of activation of the network’s updates from a year to six months.
