Odaily Planet Daily reported that the Ethereum core development team decided to divide the next major upgrade Pectra into at least two parts, and the first update is expected to be released in February 2025. 🎉

This update includes the EIP-7702 proposal, which allows users to pay gas fees with other cryptocurrencies, not just ETH. This change will make the Ethereum ecosystem more flexible and user-friendly. 💡

In addition, the EIP-7251 proposal will allow stakers to receive rewards from more than 32 ETH, optimizing network bandwidth requirements. Users who stake 40 ETH will benefit from an additional 8 ETH. 💰

The initial version of Pectra also includes the EIP-6110 and EIP-7002 proposals to achieve a fully automated and permissionless ETH equity pool. The rest is expected to be completed in 2026. 🚀

Although the market attitude is neutral, Bitcoin is still worth paying attention to. 📈
