Ethereum’s Pectra Upgrade Delayed to May 7, 2025

Ethereum’s eagerly anticipated Pectra upgrade has faced a slight delay, now slated for deployment on the mainnet on May 7, 2025. This shift follows technical challenges during testnet implementation, particularly issues with the Holesky testnet and a minor bug discovered on the Sepolia testnet. These hurdles prompted developers to adjust the timeline, ultimately leading to the confirmation of the new launch date.
