Ethereum developers are launching a new long-lived testnet called Hoodi on March 17 to address challenges with the Pectra upgrade, focusing on validator exit mechanisms. The upgrade aims to enhance staking operations, consensus layers, and Ethereum validator optimizations but has faced delays due to client readiness issues and synchronization bugs. Mainnet activation is expected at least 30 days after Hoodi forks, with April 25 being the earliest possible date. The community has expressed mixed reactions to the delays but remains optimistic about Pectra's potential benefits.

Additionally, Ethereum developers are planning the Fusaka upgrade, introducing Peer Data Availability Sampling and the Ethereum Virtual Machine Object Format. The deadline for Ethereum Improvement Proposals is March 24, with client scope preferences due by March 31 and a tentative scope freeze on April 10.
