Harder Fusaka in Ethereum planned for autumn

The next large -scale Ethereum update called Fusaka is scheduled for the second half of the year. The team intends to hold a hard fork in September or October, said Tomash Stansk, co -executive director of Ethereum Foundation.

There is no accurate upgrade deployment schedule yet, the manager said.

Stansk also noted that preparations for the Pectra Hardfform assigned on May 7 are “going according to plan”.

Meanwhile, the Core developer Tim Beiko excluded from the Fusaka specification an improvement in Ethereum Object Format (EOF). The solution converts the structure of the Bight code of the Ethereum virtual machine in order to increase the efficiency of performing smart contracts and reduce gas costs.

Beiko referred to “technical uncertainty” regarding the impact of the update, which could affect the timing of the hard fork.

“All debates about the inclusion of EOF showed failures in the process of placing priorities. Although the main developers initially repeatedly spoke out for EOF, in each case many prominent members of the community have made objections, ”the programmer added.

He noted that the key part of Fusaka will be the implementation of Peerdas. The protocol is designed to reduce the load on the nodes, improve data distribution efficiency and increase the capacity of the network. The solution will also gradually increase the size of the arrays of binary data (BLOB) to 32 MB.

In 2024, the developer Peter Sudesti called PEERDAS a blow to the home eThereum steakers and a threat to network decentralization. It was assumed that the protocol would be included in Pectra.
