- 🚨🚨 Pectra is scheduled for Mainnet activation on May 7 @ 10:05:11 UTC! We’ve launched a new website just in time! Featuring your go-to hub with a personalized fork checklist and key moments to watch for as the upgrade unfolds. Link below👇👇
- Help make the dataset more robust! More information here:Vape cabal? $1.5B? Libra? Trench warfare? Brother what are you talking about? I'm busy watching the Ethereum beacon chain in the @ethPandaOps lab
ethpandaops.ioContributoor: A Lightweight Beacon Node CompanionWe're excited to announce Contributoor; a new monitoring and data-gathering tool that helps improve Ethereum's network visibility while running seamlessly alongside your beacon node. - Electra was successfully activated on Hoodi last week. Our latest analysis dives in to EIP7549 and compares attestion packing performance before and after the fork. Link below!👇👇👇
- Status update on Pectra testnets: - If your testing doesn't need a validator: Use Sepolia (e.g: EIP-7702 wallets) - If your testing needs a validator: See the rest of the thread - If you don't rely on any external infra, use devnet-6: pectra-devnet-6.ethpandaops.io Thread: (1/5) 🧵We're often going about 60% participation rates on Holesky, come help us finalize it! <3
GIF - Its just a chill testnet with over a million validators
The new testnet Hoodi is live! The testnet is aimed at being a stable location for staking operators and infra providers to test on. Holesky Validators and Staking providers (deprecated) Sepolia: App and tool dev Hoodi: Validators and Staking providers blog.ethereum.org/2025/03/18/hoo… - Status update: - Holesky is still stable and finalizing - There are some epochs with lower participation as people migrate their hacky setups back to stable ones - Holesky can be used for pectra validator testing again - Solo stakers, please use Ephemery: ephemery.devHolesky was non-finalizing for almost two weeks, this meant the nodes had a lot of states to keep around. Once finality happened, a lot of the states need pruning. Some changes made to the hacky branches seem to take client offline. They're slowly coming back online now!
- Hoodi is a new testnet we plan on launching 17th March. The network will have 1M validators and be the new location for validator related testing. We aim to keep the network as stable as possible, in order for staking providers to have a stable staging envACDE Recap A new testnet, Hoodi, is going live Monday to wrap up Pectra testing, if you need to test validator exits, be on the lookout for it! Everything else can be tested on Sepolia & Holesky. Pectra will be scheduled 30+ days after Hoodi forks successfully, pending infra
- 🚨 Announcement! We're opening up our Xatu data pipeline to the community! If you're running a beacon node this is your opportunity to help accelerate Ethereum development. Read more:
- We have just finished testing dencun features on a mainnet shadowfork. We have seen blob inclusion from each EL/CL pair as well as blobs appearing in blocks built by MEV relayers.
- 🐼Announcement time! We're making our Xatu data open source and publicly available! 🚀🚀🚀 Our goal is to enable researchers, developers, and enthusiasts to drive Ethereum's continued growth and success. Read more:

- The hoodi testnet finalized pectra! The initial testing looks great, however the full suite of validator tests will take atleast a day to complete. Tune in to ACD to hear more! :D
- Announcing Tracoor! Primarily created as a tool for incidents on the Ethereum network, Tracoor enables developers to concentrate on resolving issues as quickly as possible. Read more:
