Hoodi是一种新的长期测试网，将于3月17日推出

测试网络将主要集中在验证器退出机制上，这是Pectra可以前进之前的最终障碍之一。

Ethereum (ETH) developers are set to launch Hoodi, a new long-lived testnet, on March 17 as they continue to work on resolving challenges with the highly anticipated Pectra upgrade.

以太坊（ETH）开发人员将于3月17日推出新型长期测试网的Hudi，因为他们继续通过备受期待的Pectra升级来解决挑战。

The testnet will mainly focus on testing validator exit mechanisms, which are among the final hurdles to clear before Pectra can launch. Broader testing will continue on Ethereum’s Sepolia and Holesky testnets.

测试网络将主要集中于测试验证器退出机制，这是Pectra推出之前要清除的最终障碍之一。以太坊的Sepolia和Holesky Testnets将继续进行更广泛的测试。

Pectra, which merges features from the Prague and Electra proposals, aims to bring several new capabilities and optimizations to Ethereum, notably merging the execution and consensus layers and rolling out key improvements for validators, such as increased staking flexibility and streamlined operations.

Pectra合并了布拉格和Electra提案的特征，旨在为以太坊带来一些新的功能和优化，特别是合并执行和共识层并为验证者推出关键改进，例如增加静止性灵活性和简化操作。

However, the upgrade has faced setbacks and experienced repeated delays due to client readiness issues, synchronization bugs, and infrastructure concerns.

但是，由于客户准备问题，同步错误和基础架构问题，升级面临挫折，并经历了重复的延迟。

According to Ethereum Foundation developer Tim Beiko, Pectra’s mainnet activation will only proceed if Hoodi successfully forkes and client teams confirm they have confidence in the upgrade’s stability.

根据以太坊基金会开发商蒂姆·贝科（Tim Beiko）的说法，Pectra的Mainnet激活只有在Hoodi成功分支和客户团队确认他们对升级的稳定性有信心时，才会继续进行。

Even in the best-case scenario, mainnet activation will not happen until at least 30 days after Hoodi forks, setting April 25 as the earliest possible date.

即使在最佳情况下，Mainnet激活也不会直到Hoodi Forks之后至少30天，这将是4月25日的最早日期。

Pectra struggles

Pectra挣扎

Ethereum developers have been working through a series of unexpected challenges with Pectra, including problems with validator exits, network synchronization, and compatibility between client implementations.

以太坊开发人员一直在处理Pectra的一系列意外挑战，包括验证器出口的问题，网络同步以及客户实现之间的兼容性。

The delays stem from issues encountered during testnet deployments. The Holesky testnet, for instance, failed to finalize after the Pectra upgrade, leading to potential mainnet launch delays as developers investigate the problems.

延迟源于在测试网络部署期间遇到的问题。例如，Holesky TestNet在Pectra升级后未能最终确定，随着开发人员调查问题，可能会导致潜在的主网发布延迟。

Similarly, the Sepolia testnet experienced misconfigurations, prompting developers to extend the testing period to collect more data before proceeding with the mainnet activation.

同样，Sepolia TestNet经历了错误的配置，促使开发人员在进行主网激活之前扩展了测试期，以收集更多数据。

Additionally, some client teams have expressed concerns about last-minute changes to the upgrade’s scope, which has complicated the testing process.

此外，一些客户团队对升级范围的最后一刻更改表示担忧，这使测试过程变得复杂。

Ethereum’s modular development structure means that upgrades must be coordinated across multiple teams working on different execution and consensus clients, adding to the complexity.

以太坊的模块化开发结构意味着，必须在多个从事不同执行和共识客户的团队中协调升级，从而增加了复杂性。

The Ethereum community has expressed mixed reactions to the recent delays in the Pectra upgrade. While some members are frustrated by the postponements, others appreciate the developers’ cautious approach to ensuring network stability.

以太坊社区对Pectra升级的最新延误表达了不同的反应。尽管有些成员对推迟感到沮丧，但其他成员则感谢开发人员谨慎地确保网络稳定的方法。

Despite these setbacks, many community members remain optimistic about Pectra’s potential benefits, including improved staking flexibility and enhanced scalability.

尽管有这些挫折，但许多社区成员仍然对Pectra的潜在利益保持乐观，包括提高固定弹性和增强性可扩展性。

Fusaka upgrade

禁食升级

While Pectra remains a priority, Ethereum developers are also progressing with planning for the Fusaka upgrade, which will follow Pectra.

尽管Pectra仍然是优先事项，但以太坊开发人员也随着Fusaka升级的计划而进步，该升级将跟随Pectra。

Fusaka will introduce Peer Data Availability Sampling (PeerDAS) to improve data handling by enabling validators to sample data instead of downloading full datasets, reducing bandwidth requirements.

Fusaka将引入同行数据可用性采样（PEERDAS），以通过使验证器能够采样数据而不是下载完整数据集，从而减少带宽要求，以改善数据处理。

It also rolls out the Ethereum Virtual Machine Object Format (EOF) to optimize smart contract execution by enabling code-data separation and versioning, lowering costs for developers.

它还推出以太坊虚拟机对象格式（EOF），以通过启用代码数据分离和版本操作来优化智能合约执行，从而降低了开发人员的成本。

The Ethereum core team has set a March 24 deadline for Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIPs) to be considered for inclusion. Client teams are expected to share their scope preferences by March 31, with a tentative scope freeze set for April 10.

以太坊核心团队已设定了3月24日的以太坊改进建议（EIPS）的截止日期，以考虑包容。预计客户团队将在3月31日之前分享其范围偏好，并在4月10日进行暂定范围冻结。

Ethereum developers remain committed to ensuring a stable and secure network upgrade. However, the multiple delays with Pectra highlight the increasing difficulty of coordinating large-scale changes to Ethereum’s infrastructure as it continues to scale.

以太坊开发人员仍致力于确保稳定且安全的网络升级。但是，随着pectra的多重延迟，突出了对以太坊基础设施继续扩展的大规模变化的越来越困难。
