Ethereum Delays Glamsterdam Testnet Step Over Gas-Accounting Risks
Summary
Ethereum developers have paused the Glamsterdam upgrade’s next step on the Hoodi testnet after ChainSecurity identified applications that may rely on gas-accounting assumptions affected by EIPs 8037 and 8038. The Ethereum Foundation is working with auditors and asks teams to review their code against eight documented invariants. AllCoreDevs will not fork Hoodi until the issues are resolved, while work on the later Hegota upgrade continues. No new deployment date was announced; key milestones include resolving compatibility risks and completing a successful Hoodi test.
