According to Foresight News, Galaxy Research Vice President Christine Kim recently summarized the latest Ethereum Core Developer Consensus Conference (ACDC), which discussed the latest developments in the Dencun development network, as well as the roadmap for Verkle Trie and State Expiry, and SSZ serialization updates. The developers agreed to continue testing on Devnet #8 until all client implementation issues are resolved, rather than pushing the launch date for Devnet #9.
The Holesky testnet officially launched on September 15 and deployed the Dencun upgrade on it, followed by deployment on Goerli, and finally on Sepolia. In addition, an Ethereum testnet called Ephemery is under development, targeting validator node operators. The next ACDE conference is scheduled for September 14 at 22:00 Beijing time, where related topics will continue to be discussed.
