Ether Lee is aiming for April to upgrade the PECTRA with a test set to live this month.

Ether Leeum developer checks the main test date of the PECTRA upgrade, which has been waiting for a long time, and makes the blockchain closer to the first major update in almost a year.

If the planned test for HOLESKY and SEPOLIA Testnets is carried out as expected, the developer expects the upgrade to be carried out on the main net in early April.

Ether Lee’s core builder booked the second test on Sepolia Testnet on March 5 after booking PECTRA’s first test on February 26 at Holesky Testnet on February 26.

If this test proceeds smoothly, the developer will reconstruct it on March 6 to finish the Date of Mainnet. Tim Beiko, head of the protocol support for Ethereum Foundation, pointed out that early April is the biggest goal.

Expected change

PECTRA, a hybrid of Prague and Electra Upgrades, introduces Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIP), which aims to improve wallet function and validation testing efficiency.

One of the most anticipated changes, the EIP-7702 is designed to simplify the user experience so that external ownership accounts, including most password wallets, can perform functions such as smart contracts.

Improvement is part of a wide range of promotions for account abstraction, which is a blockchain trend that makes the wallet more flexible by allowing users to pay trading fees as assets other than ETH.

Another important update, the EIP-7251, increases the validity testing limit from 32 ETH to 2,048 ETH. This change is expected to alleviate network congestion by reducing the long queues needed for large -scale validation testors to integrate tasks and set new nodes.

Challenge

The PECTRA upgrade occurs when the performance of the smart contract network that competes with Bitcoin is lowered, and the investigation of Ether Leeum is intensified. Rivals such as Solana have gained momentum in recent months and have gained interest and talent in Ether Leeum’s ecosystem.

Meanwhile, the Ether Leeum Foundation is also undergoing major leadership transitions and adds uncertainty about the long -term direction of the project. The Foundation has also been criticized in recent months in the sales of Etherum, especially in the market.

Along with PECTRA, developers hope to reaffirm their dominance as an Ethereum’s main smart contract blockchain. If everything proceeds according to the plan, the upgrade can strengthen Ether Leeum’s technical advantage and improve the adoption of users to solve some of the biggest pain points of the network.
