In Ethereum Testnette Sepolia there was a failure after PECTRA activation

On March 5, the Sepolia test network did not process the transaction after a PECTRA hardware. Developers discovered bug and released a patch that has removed.

Well, Sems Like and Jinxed It 😅 We’re Investigating An Issue Caused by the Custom Deposit Contract on Sepolia. This has caused some el clients to have isssues including transactions in Blocks. https://t.co/oOZPHQXO6s

“We are working with a problem in the user’s deposit contract on Sepolia. This led to the inclusion of transactions in the blocks, ”said EF Timako Support Head of Support.

The reason was the “weirdness” of the said contract, which issued two events (transfer + deposit), not one. As a result, some EL clients have “suppressed” and ceased to include transactions.

PECTRA FORK ON SEPOLIA WENT LIVE, THEN Things Got Weird

– LOOKED FINE AT FIRST, THEN BLOKS STARTED CLOSING WITH 0 TXS
– Turns Out Sepolia’s Deposit Contract Emits Two Events (Transfer + Deposit) Institute of One

It took six hours to eliminate Bag.

PECTRA activation in Sepolia followed 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 major clients”. Specialists also had to release a software for software.

Despite the BAGs found, the team did not carry the deployment of the update to Sepolia for a later date.

PECTRA is formed from the names of two previously planned hardifers Prague (for the level of execution) and Electra (for consensus level).

EIPS includes 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.

We will remind, Ethereum faces “intense competition” by competing blockchain projections such as Solana, according to JPMorgan analysts.

In February, the developers noted the expediency of reducing the frequency of activation of network upgrades from year to six months.
