Pectra goes directly to TestnetEthereum’s Pectra was upgraded on the air on the Holesky Testnet on February 24, but it failed to finish at the expected time. The solid fork is collected with Kitra together 11 major promotionsOr “ETHEREUM Improving” proposals (EIPS), in one pack. At the heart of this is the EIP-7702, which is supposed to improve the user experience of the encryption portfolios. The proposal, which was the co -founder of Ethereum Vitalik Buterin in Only 22 minutesIt will allow the governor to have some of the capabilities of smart contracts, as part of a wider strategy to bring Mixing the account to ethereum – a concept that makes the ability to use from the wallets much lower.

Another major proposal, EIP-7251, will allow resistance To increase the maximum amount they can share From 32 to 2048 eith. The proposal is supposed to reduce some technical aspects they bear ETH class Today’s face: Those who share more than 32 ETH have to spread through many auditors, making the process a little bit of inconvenience. By raising the maximum share and gathering these auditors, it can accelerate the process of setting up a new contract. HOLESKY is the first two Testnets to run by simulating a virgin. The next test is supposed to take place in Testnet Sepolia on March 5. but according to Developers, Kristen Kim, the deputy head of research at Galaxy, can delay it depending on the size of today’s case. After Pectra has been broadcast directly on both Testnets, the developers will ink in a final date to activate the upgrade on Mainnet. – Margaux Nijkerk Read more.

MIYaguchi leaves the role of Ethereum: The Executive Director of Ethereum Aya Miyaguchi leaves her position to move to a new role as president of the organization. The news comes as non -profit organizations It passes through driving As ethereum has become Less popular for new builders In recent months, with Even some blame Magucci driving for the reason that the price of the distinctive symbol in Blockchain is lagging behind other cryptocurrencies. “This new opportunity will allow me to continue to support the institutional relations of EF, and to expand our vision and culture on a broader scale,” MIYAGUCI He wrote in a blog post It was published on February 25. Ethereum is a non -profit organization that supports Ethereum Blockchain. Founded in 2014, MIYAGUCHI joined in 2018 and was the CEO since then. Vitalik Buterin, co -founder of Ethereum In a publication On X that “every success of EF – the fixed implementation of Ethereum hard forks, the interop workshop, Devcon, the Ethereum culture and its fixed commitment to its mission and values, and more – is part of the supervision of a verse.” – Margaux Nijkerk Read more.

The launch of a Avalanche visa card. The card was developed in cooperation with the Rain, which is the Blockchain cards platform.

Github’s infiltrators are used to Nab BTCThe GitHub icon you use to create a modern application or remain stains to steal Bitcoin (BTC) or other encryption possessions, according to the Kaspersky report. GitHub is a common tool among developers of all kinds, but it is more than that among projects that focus on encryption, as a simple application may generate millions of dollars. The report warned users of the “Gitvenom” campaign, which was active for at least two years, but at a fixed height, including cultivating the harmful code in fake projects on the famous code warehouse platform. The attack on GitHub projects apparently begins – such as making Telegram robots to manage Bitcoin portfolios or computer games. Each of them comes with a polished Readme file, which is often created, to build confidence. But the code itself is a Trojan horse: For projects based on Bethon, attackers hide the evil scenario after a strange series of 2000 tabs, which disintegrate and carry out a harmful load. For JavaScript, the Rogue function is included in the main file, which leads to a launch attack. Once activated, harmful programs withdraw additional tools from the GitHub warehouse that is controlled by hacker. Once the system is infected, other various programs to implement exploitation begin. How can users protect themselves? By checking any symbol before running it, checking the project’s validity, and the nets in excessively polished Reading or the date of inconsistent commitment. Because researchers do not expect these attacks to stop any time soon: “We expect these attempts to continue in the future, and perhaps with small changes in TTPS,” said Kaspersky. – Shuria Malwa Read more.
