Pectra Upgrade Goes Live with Major Enhancements

Ethereum’s Pectra upgrade was successfully deployed at epoch 364032, around 10:05 GMT. After several delays and testnet challenges, the upgrade introduces changes from eleven Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIPs) to the mainnet. Pectra is Ethereum’s most ambitious upgrade since The Merge in August 2022, which transitioned the network from Proof-of-Work to Proof-of-Stake.

This upgrade follows the Dencun update in March 2024, which activated EIP-4844’s proto-danksharding, known as “blobspaces.” These changes are expected to improve Ethereum’s scalability and efficiency, paving the way for better network performance.
