Ethereum schedules Glamsterdam upgrade on Sepolia for Oct. 6

What happened

Ethereum developers have scheduled the network’s next major upgrade, Glamsterdam, to activate on the Sepolia testnet on Oct. Developers are targeting 2027 for Hegotá, the upgrade expected to follow Glamsterdam.

Sepolia node operators must update both their execution-layer and consensus-layer clients before the activation, the Ethereum Foundation said Monday. One of Glamsterdam’s changes is enshrined proposer-builder separation.

Developers have not set dates for its rollout on the validator-focused testnet Hoodi or on mainnet. This news article is produced in accordance with Cointelegraph’s Editorial Policy and aims to provide accurate and timely information. Readers are encouraged to verify information independently.
