Problem Discovered in Ethereum!<\/strong> Ethereum’s new upgrade, Dencun, was scheduled to go live on the Goerli testnet on January 17. However, at the scheduled time for the upgrade to go live, Tim Beiko announced that the fork had occurred. However, in a post he made 20 minutes later, he noted that a chain split had occurred due to the operation being unable to be completed.<\/p>\n

The necessary preparations had been completed for the upgrade to go live, and the upgrade was about to go live. However, a chain split occurred due to the operation being unable to be completed. This delayed the upgrade from going live by four hours.<\/p>\n

After the fix was patched in, the validators came back online and the chain started finalizing again. The MEV circuitbreaker automatically disables and mev-blocks have started flowing through as well. <\/p>\n
