Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
Ethereum core developers have postponed the Hoodi testnet hard fork for the Glamsterdam upgrade after security auditor ChainSecurity flagged smart-contract compatibility risks tied to gas-accounting invariants that could break under the EIP-8037 and EIP-8038 proposals, developer Marius van der Wijden said. The delay matters because projects relying on those invariants may need code changes before the upgrade can proceed safely. Developers are now working with multiple audit firms on security checks and are asking smart-contract teams to assess whether they are affected and whether the upgrade specifications need adjustment. What to watch next is the outcome of those audits and any revisions to EIP-8037 and EIP-8038, which will determine when the Hoodi fork is rescheduled.
