The Ethereum community has just made another important milestone, bringing the network closer to its plan to successfully deploy Shanghai at the end of March.

According to the personal Twitter share of the developer terence.eth, the Sepolia test network has successfully deployed the Shanghai upgrade, also known as Shapella. However, the developer also said that there are some problems with old client versions.

Some of the Prsym validators are offline due to the old geth version. They will come online in the next 10 mins!

“Some of the Prysm validators didn’t catch up to the network because they were using an old version of geth. They will be back in action within the next 10 minutes. The network’s next plan will be the Goerli testnet.”
The Ethereum Foundation post shared, the name “Shapella” is a combination of “Shanghai” (upgraded version of Execution) and “Cappella” (upgraded version of Consensus) ).

The most important detail of this hardfork is to support validators with the right to withdraw ETH from the Beacon Chain. Readers can learn more about some of the other changes in this upgrade in the article below.

The network’s next move is the Goerli testnet, slated to take place in March. Evaluations will be made by Ethereum’s Core Devs community, before officially setting a mainnet launch date for this important upgrade. .
