When will the Hoodi test network launched by Ethereum Foundation developers be launched?

Mar 14, 2025 at 09:52 am

Ethereum's upcoming Hoodi testnet, launching March 17th, will rigorously test the Pectra upgrade before its anticipated April 25th mainnet activation, aiming to enhance scalability and usability.

When will the Hoodi test network launched by Ethereum Foundation developers be launched?

In the world of cryptocurrencies, Ethereum has always played a vital role. Recently, a series of actions by the developers of the Ethereum Foundation have once again attracted global attention. Among them, the newly launched Hoodi test network has attracted much attention, and everyone is asking: When will the Hoodi test network be launched?
According to All Devs Call this Thursday, Ethereum Foundation developers will launch a new test network called Hoodi, an important mission of which is to conduct comprehensive testing of the final Pectra deployment before the mainnet is activated. The launch time of the Hoodi test network is not a long time. According to current news, this new "long-term" test network is expected to be officially launched on March 17.
Previously, Ethereum's upgrade journey was not smooth. Pectra activation on Holesky and Sepolia test networks has encountered a headache configuration problem. These issues forced the official release schedule to be postponed. This also makes everyone pay more attention to subsequent test network and main network upgrades. After all, every upgrade is related to the future development direction of Ethereum.
So, why is Pectra upgrade so important that a new test network is needed to protect it? The goal of Pectra upgrade is very clear, that is, to improve the availability and scalability of Ethereum. In terms of improving availability, it effectively reduces data availability costs by increasing the number of "blob" transactions in the Layer 2 network. This means that for Ethereum users, they can enjoy a lower cost and a smoother experience during use. In terms of scalability, Pectra upgrades significantly increase staking restrictions while introducing account abstraction. The introduction of account abstraction greatly expands the functions of smart contracts and wallets. Some complicated operations that were difficult to implement in the past will become easier after Pectra upgrades. This undoubtedly injects strong impetus into the further development of the Ethereum ecosystem.
Go back to the Hoodi test network. It appears to ensure that the Pectra upgrade can be implemented smoothly on the main network. After launching on March 17, the Hoodi test network will start a series of intense testing efforts. Developers will pay close attention to various indicators of the network during operation, including but not limited to network stability, transaction processing speed, implementation of new functions, etc. Any potential problems may be discovered and resolved at this stage, thus providing a solid guarantee for the upgrade of the main network.
There are also relevant speculations about the activation time of Pectra upgrade on the main network. Pectra may be activated on the Ethereum mainnet as early as April 25, about 30 days after the new Hoodi test network deployment upgrade plan. From the timing, it can be seen that the developers of the Ethereum Foundation are orderly advancing the entire upgrade process, striving to ensure that every link is foolproof.
From the announcement of the news on March 14, to the launch of the Hoodi test network on March 17, to the possible activation of the Pectra upgrade on the main network on April 25, this series of events are closely linked. The launch of the Hoodi test network is undoubtedly a key step in this upgrade process. It carries the expectations of many developers and users and will lay an important foundation for the future development of Ethereum.
