兩次越野車測試後，以太坊（ETH）pectra升級了

在兩次越野車測試pectra之後

After two buggy test runs of Pectra, Ethereum's biggest upgrade since 2024, the network's developers decided on Thursday to postpone the upgrade pending further tests.

在兩次越野車測試pectra之後，以太坊自2024年以來最大的升級後，該網絡的開發人員周四決定將升級推遲，等待進一步的測試。

Pectra, which was planned as Ethereum faced mounting pressure to compete with other blockchains, contains a slate of upgrades designed to improve Ethereum's speed and ease of use.

佩克拉（Pectra）計劃以太坊面臨著與其他區塊鏈競爭的不斷增長的壓力，其中包含旨在提高以太坊速度和易用性的升級。

When developers inked in the test dates for Pectra in January, they agreed to use the Thursday, Mar. 6 call to set a date for Pectra to go live on the mainnet. If all went well, the expectation was that the upgrade would go live in March.

當開發人員在一月份在Pectra的測試日期墨水時，他們同意使用3月6日星期四的電話，將Pectra的日期定為日期，讓Pectra在主網上上線。如果一切順利，期望升級將在三月份進行。

The decision to postpone came after Pectra's tests on Holesky and Sepolia, Ethereum's two primary test networks, both encountered bugs. In both cases, the problems resulted from misconfigurations with the test rather than issues with Pectra itself.

在佩克拉（Pectra）對以太坊的兩個主要測試網絡Holesky和Sepolia的測試後，推遲推遲的決定是遇到錯誤的。在這兩種情況下，問題都是由於測試的不良配置而不是Pectra本身的問題。

Under normal circumstances, these two tests would have been enough. However, due to the bugs, developers determined on Thursday that Pectra should undergo additional testing before it goes live on Ethereum's main network.

在正常情況下，這兩個測試就足夠了。但是，由於這些錯誤，開發人員在周四確定Pectra在以太坊的主要網絡上進行之前應該進行其他測試。

"It seems like we need more information before we can really set a concrete date," said Alex Stokes, a researcher at the Ethereum Foundation who led Thursday’s call.

“似乎我們需要更多信息才能真正設定具體日期，”以太坊基金會的研究人員亞歷克斯·斯托克斯（Alex Stokes）說。

As for next steps, developers decided on Thursday to create a "shadow fork" of the Holesky test network, which has been inoperable since the last Pectra upgrade. The Pectra test's configuration issues forced many of Holesky's validators offline, meaning the network can no longer record transactions properly.

至於下一步，開發人員決定在周四建立一個Holesky測試網絡的“陰影叉”，這是自上次pectra升級以來無法使用的。 Pectra測試的配置問題迫使Holesky的許多驗證器離線，這意味著網絡無法再記錄交易。

A shadow fork is a temporary copy of a blockchain network that is discarded once it is no longer needed. Holesky is a vitally important testing area for Ethereum's developers, and a shadow fork will allow certain key stakeholders — like staking pools and app developers — to test their code on Pectra while the main Holesky network is being fixed.

陰影叉是區塊鍊網絡的臨時副本，一旦不再需要，它就會被丟棄。 Holesky是以太坊開發人員的至關重要的測試區域，陰影叉將允許某些關鍵的利益相關者（例如Staging Pools和App Developers）在固定主要的Holesky網絡時在Pectra上測試其代碼。

"Anyone who wants to test on Holesky can test there,” Stokes recapped on Thursday's call. In the meantime, developers will work to get the primary Holesky network back up and running, which will require 67% of the validators who run the network to reconfigure their systems and come back online.

Stokes在周四的電話中回顧了Stokes：“任何想在Holesky上進行測試的人都可以在那裡進行測試。與此同時，開發人員將努力使主要的Holesky Network備份並運行，這將需要67％的驗證者運行網絡來重新配置其係統並返回在線。

Once Holeksy can finalize once again — meaning it's able to add and record transactions as usual — "we'll have more data to make a call on the next steps around mainnet and launching Pectra,” said Stokes. Developers say Holesky will be operating normally again by around March 28.

斯托克斯說，一旦Holeksy再次完成 - 能夠像往常一樣添加和記錄交易 - “我們將有更多數據來呼籲Mainnet圍繞Mainnet並啟動Pectra的下一步。” Stokes說。開發人員說，Holesky將在3月28日左右在3月28日左右正常運行。

Pectra’s Improvements

Pectra的改進

Pectra is set to be one of the blockchain’s most ambitious changes to date, aimed at improving ease of use for both users and operators of the network.

Pectra將成為迄今為止區塊鏈最雄心勃勃的變化之一，旨在提高網絡用戶和運營商的易用性。

One of the upgrade's main additions, EIP-7702, gives crypto wallets some smart contract capabilities. The change is meant to move Ethereum further towards account abstraction, a technological feature that lets wallet builders add user-friendly features, like the ability to pay for fees with currencies other than Ethereum's native ETH.

EIP-7702升級的主要添加劑之一使加密錢包具有一些智能合同功能。該更改旨在將以太坊進一步轉移到Account Accort Actraction，這是一項技術功能，可讓錢包構建者添加對用戶友好的功能，例如能夠使用以太坊的原生ETH以外的其他貨幣支付費用的能力。

Another key proposal, EIP-7251, will alleviate some headaches for Ethereum's operators, or "validators." The change will increase the maximum amount of ETH one validator can stake from 32 to 2,048, meaning those who stake more than 32 ETH will no longer need to split their assets between so many nodes. The change is meant to improve convenience for validators and reduce the amount of time it takes to spin up a new node.

另一個關鍵提議EIP-7251將減輕以太坊運營商或“驗證者”的一些頭痛。更改將增加一個ETH一個驗證器的最大量可以從32到2,048，這意味著那些將超過32 ETH的人不再需要將其資產分配在這麼多節點之間。更改旨在提高驗證器的便利性，並減少旋轉新節點所需的時間。

Thursday's postponement came as community members had already voiced frustration with the Ethereum Foundation, the non-profit that stewards Ethereum's development and coordinates network upgrades.

週四的推遲是因為社區成員已經對以太坊基金會感到沮喪，以太坊基金會是管理以太坊的發展並協調網絡升級的非營利組織。

The foundation's critics argue that Ethereum has failed to develop a cohesive roadmap that will help it compete with ascendent networks like Solana. They point to the lagging price of ether (ETH) as a sign of waning confidence from the wider market.

基金會的批評家認為，以太坊未能開發出凝聚力的路線圖，這將有助於它與Solana等上升網絡競爭。他們指出，以太（ETH）的落後價格是從更廣泛的市場信心下降的標誌。
