Network Pectra Finally Goes Live on EthereumAfter months of anticipation, Ethereum finally activated its long-awaited “Pectra” upgrade on Wednesday. The integration marks the blockchain’s most significant overhaul since the Merge in 2022. It aims to streamline staking, enhance wallet functionality, and improve overall efficiency. The update arrives as Ethereum is contending with both rising competition from other blockchains and internal debates over its direction. A key element of the Pectra upgrade involves increasing the amount of ETH one can stake with a single validator from 32 to 2,048. This change could help to speed up and streamline operations for stakers, the vast network of companies and individuals who help to keep the Ethereum network afloat. Previously, those who wanted to stake at scale would have to set up multiple validators to reach that goal, but now they will be able to aggregate up to that amount in a single node.

網絡Pectra終於在以太衛生局的月份期待中進行了直播，以太坊終於在周三激活了期待已久的“ Pectra”升級。集成標誌著自2022年合併以來區塊鏈最重要的大修。它旨在簡化，增強錢包功能並提高整體效率。隨著以太坊正在與其他區塊鏈的競爭競爭以及有關其方向的內部辯論的競爭，該更新的到來。 Pectra升級的關鍵要素涉及將單個驗證器的ETH量從32增加到2,048。這種變化可能有助於加快加速和簡化Stakers，龐大的公司和個人網絡，這些公司和個人網絡有助於保持以太坊網絡的流暢。以前，那些想要大規模賭注的人必須設置多個驗證器才能達到該目標，但是現在他們將能夠在單個節點中匯總該數量。

The upgrade also includes several other changes, such as an improvement to the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) that will allow for greater smart contract functionality and a new standard for interacting with smart contracts, known as "EIPs." Among the EIPs being introduced with Pectra is one that will enable smoother integration of Paymaster contracts, which are used to aggregate and pay for multiple small transactions. This integration is part of a broader effort to reduce gas fees and improve efficiency for users.

該升級還包括其他幾個更改，例如對以太坊虛擬機（EVM）的改進，這將允許更大的智能合同功能和與智能合約（稱為“ EIP””進行互動的新標準。在與Pectra一起引入的EIP中，可以使Paymaster合同的整合更平穩，這些合同用於匯總和支付多項小型交易。這種整合是降低汽油費並提高用戶效率的更廣泛努力的一部分。

Pectra is the culmination of a year of development and testing by the Ethereum community. It is a testament to the dedication and expertise of the engineers, researchers, and other contributors who work tirelessly to maintain and improve one of the world’s most used blockchains. As the cryptocurrency markets become increasingly competitive, and protocols like Solana and Aptos gain traction, the community is focused on making sure Ethereum remains at the forefront of the industry.

Pectra是以太坊社區開發和測試一年的高潮。這證明了工程師，研究人員和其他貢獻者的奉獻精神和專業知識，這些人不懈地努力維護和改善世界上最常用的區塊鏈之一。隨著加密貨幣市場變得越來越有競爭力，Solana和Aptos等協議吸引了人們，社區致力於確保以太坊仍然處於行業的最前沿。

Bitcoin Core Devs to Remove OP_RETURN Limit, Sparking DebateThe developers of Bitcoin Core, the most popular node software, said they plan to scrap the OP_RETURN in the next release. The small change to the code will spark a broader debate about the role of programmability in Bitcoin, and whether it should be used more to create new use cases or kept to a minimum to preserve Bitcoin’s financial essence.

比特幣核心開發人員要刪除OP_Return限制，最受歡迎的節點軟件的比特幣核心的開發人員會引發DEBATETHE DEBATETHE DEBATETHE，他們計劃在下一個版本中刪除OP_Return。該代碼的小更改將引發有關可編程性在比特幣中的作用的更廣泛的辯論，以及是否應該將其用於創建新用例或保持最低限度以保留比特幣的財務本質。

The OP_RETURN limit is an 80-byte cap on the amount of arbitrary data that can be included in a Bitcoin transaction. This small piece of code has sparked heated discussion over the past year as it becomes increasingly clear that the demand for greater payloads is outpacing the current offering.

OP_RETURN限制是可以包含在比特幣事務中的任意數據量的80字節上限。在過去的一年中，這一小塊代碼引發了激烈的討論，因為人們越來越清楚對更大有效載荷的需求超過了當前的產品。

Those arguing for keeping the 80-byte limit intact say that removing it will open the door to abuse, spam and a shift away from Bitcoin’s primary focus on finance. They also worry that increasing the OP_RETURN limit will create technical difficulties and instability for Bitcoin nodes.

那些主張保持80字節限制的人說，將其刪除將為濫用，垃圾郵件和比特幣對金融的主要關注的轉移打開大門。他們還擔心，增加OP_RETERN限制會給比特幣節點帶來技術困難和不穩定。

But those in favor of removing the 80-byte limit say it will promote transparency and simplify data use on Bitcoin. They add that the 80-byte limit is already de facto bypassed today with techniques like SLIP-73.

但是那些贊成刪除80字節限制的人表示，它將促進透明度並簡化比特幣上的數據使用。他們補充說，如今已通過Slip-73之類的技術繞過了80字節的限制。

Worldcoin Comes to 6 U.S. Cities with Biometric OrbsSam Altman’s blockchain project, World, is launching in the U.S. – and said it intends to roll out 7,500 eye-scanning “orbs” in cities across the country by the year’s end.

WorldCoin通過生物識別Orbssam Altman的區塊鏈項目到達美國的6個城市，World正在美國推出，並表示打算在全國各地的城市中推出7,500張眼球掃描的“ Orbs”。

World’s orbs – chrome, bowling ball-shaped devices that scan a person’s iris to confirm their identity – will initially be available to Americans in six “key innovation hubs,” the company said: Atlanta, Austin, Los Angeles, Miami, Nashville and San Francisco.

該公司表示，世界球 - 鍍鉻，保齡球球形的設備，掃描一個人的虹膜以確認其身份 - 最初將在六個“關鍵創新樞紐”中的美國人使用：亞特蘭大，奧斯汀，洛杉磯，邁阿密，邁阿密，納什維爾和桑弗朗西斯科。

Those who decide to take the plunge and gaze into the orb will gain access to the World app and receive an airdrop of World’s WLD token. By the year’s end, the project aims to have enough orbs to give 180 million Americans – more than half the population – access to World’s network.

那些決定冒險並凝視Orb的人將訪問世界應用程序，並獲得世界上WLD代幣的空投。到年底，該項目的目標是有足夠的球體使1.8億美國人（超過一半的人口）進入世界網絡。

After 8 Years, Aztec Testnet Is LiveAztec, a layer-2 rollup focused on privacy, shared that its testnet has finally gone live. The announcement comes as a wave of new privacy-focused solutions begins to capture the interests of large institutions that need confidentiality with large transaction batches. The team behind Aztec said that they have been working on the product for over eight years, bringing the cutting-edge technology one step closer to the mainnet.

8年後，AZTEC Testnet是Liveaztec，這是一個專注於隱私的第2層匯總，分享了其TestNet終於發行了。該公告是隨著新的以隱私為重點的解決方案浪潮開始捕捉大型機構的利益，這些機構需要大量交易批次的機密性。阿茲台克（AZTEC）背後的團隊表示，他們已經從事該產品已有八年多的歷史了，這使尖端技術更接近主網。
