The Holesky Testnet of Ethereum finally reached the purpose on Monday, almost two weeks after upgrading the Pectra online.
Epoch 119 090 sealed the agreement around 7:00 p.m. UTC, with more than two thirds of the validators validating the network. An era is a time of time when a specific number of blocks is finished on the blockchain.
The finality, which irreversibly locks transactions in two eras, about 13 minutes, was absent since February 24 due to a configuration bug in the customer software, and not the upgrading of Pectra itself.
Restoration efforts in recent weeks have made this recovery. Developers now stabilize nodes and prune the old states to fully relaunch the test test for the chest tests.
The Sépolia Testnet, also performing Pectra, reached the purpose but then faced empty blocks of a defective deposit contract. An attacker operated it by sending zero-tken transfers, noted Ethereum developers, a problem resolved later by the customer teams.
Pectra upgrade introduces key improvements such as gas payments in nonth tokens, abstraction of accounts and higher implementation limits.
