Golden Finance reported that Ethereum’s “Pectra” upgrade will be available on Holesky and Sepolia test networks in February and March. Pectra will include a range of improvements with a special focus on wallets and validators. If these tests are successful, developers will meet again on March 6 to determine when the upgrade will be officially launched. Some developers now say it may land on the mainnet in early April. Pectra is a mixed word that represents two separate upgrades, namely Prague and Electra, which contains eight major improvements to the second largest blockchain. The most anticipated of these is EIP-7702, which is designed to improve the user experience of crypto wallets. Another major feature of Pectra, EIP-7251, will allow validators to increase their stakes – from 32 ETH to 2,048 ETH.
