Ethereum Foundation Reportedly Delays Glamsterdam Hoodi Testnet Upgrade
The Ethereum Foundation has reportedly postponed the Glamsterdam upgrade on the Hoodi testnet, previously scheduled for October 26, to conduct additional analysis of EIP-8037.
The review reportedly focuses on how the proposal could affect existing smart contracts when deployed on Ethereum $ETH mainnet.
Additional testing may help identify compatibility issues before changes reach production infrastructure, although postponements can also affect development timelines and ecosystem planning.
The report concerns a testnet milestone rather than confirmation of a mainnet delay. An updated schedule and the specific technical findings behind the decision have not been established in the initial announcement.
