Ethereumis preparing to release its new upgrade that will bring significant improvements and changes to the network. The “Prague” upgrade, also known as the “Pectra” upgrade, is eagerly awaited by the community.

The update in question will be released first on January 17 in Goerli, on January 30 in Sepolia, and on February 7 in Holesky. Once the developers are sure that the upgrade in question works flawlessly, they will release it on the mainnet.

Ethereum will release its new update.

The core development team is currently discussing prioritizing the implementation of Verkle trees, a data structure that will optimize storage and access to information in Ethereum. While some developers advocate for Verkle trees to be the sole focus, others continue to recommend pursuing a smaller feature fork alongside Verkle development.

Koinfinans.com As we have reported, the main argument for focusing solely on Verkle trees stems from their complexity and the time investment required to implement them effectively. This could mean that new execution layer (EL) features may not emerge for 12 to 24 months, or possibly longer, if Verkle trees become the next priority.

However, even just shifting the focus to Verkle trees brings out comments about the need for some updates to the Ethereum Layer.

For example, changes to the gas limit for data availability are crucial to Ethereum’s scaling solutions and require coordination between both the execution layer and the consensus layer (CL).

Ultimately, the update is considered a step forward in ensuring that Ethereum continues to provide a secure, efficient and scalable platform for decentralized applications.
