ChainCatcher news, according to CoinTelegraph, Ethereum core developers reached a consensus on accelerating the deployment of future protocol upgrades during the "All Core Devs" meeting on February 13. Nixo Rokish, a member of the Ethereum Foundation's protocol support team, stated that the Pectra review report shows strong community support for speeding up the fork pace, which means reducing delays in the scope of upgrades and more actively soliciting feedback.The Pectra upgrade, scheduled for release in April, will be the largest upgrade in Ethereum's history, containing up to 20 Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIPs), involving enhancements to cryptocurrency wallet functionality and data availability expansion. Ethereum Foundation researcher Tim Beiko stated that the Pectra system contracts will go live on the mainnet on February 17.The development team has also set a deadline of April 10 for the Fusaka upgrade, which primarily focuses on improving the transaction packaging process. Developers must submit EIP proposals by March 13, and the community needs to express opinions on the inclusion of proposals by March 27.

ChainCatcher news, the 16th upgrade of the Tezos protocol, Paris, has been launched on the mainnet on June 5, aiming to make the network faster and more scalable.A key goal of this upgrade and Tezos's scalability roadmap is to maintain low transaction fees in the EVM-compatible L2 network Etherlink, even under high network demand.Tezos co-founder Arthur Breitman stated that after the upgrade, Etherlink is now cheaper than Arbitrum and Optimism, and the user experience (UX) has improved.

ChainCatcher news, according to CoinDesk, Tezos blockchain validators will vote on the newly released protocol upgrade proposal, which aims to reduce the network block confirmation time to 10 seconds and activate DAL to improve throughput and L2 scalability.

ChainCatcher news, Scroll has released some details about the next protocol upgrade on the X platform, which includes further enhancements to Ethereum compatibility and support for EIP-4844.First, its engineering team has been working hard to make Scroll Mainnet compatible with Dencun. This includes adding support for EIP-4844 data blobs, aiming to reduce transaction fees by 10 times with the help of some additional gas optimizations.In addition, its goals also include the SHA-256 opcode to further improve EVM compatibility and allow for a broader range of DApps and use cases to be built on Scroll.The team is making steady progress in these areas, and before the mainnet deployment, EIP-4844 support is undergoing a period of review. After this testing period, Scroll may be ready to release this protocol upgrade by the end of April. The official team will provide the community with a clearer timeline in the coming weeks, along with the exact date for deploying this upgrade.Moreover, the team is also working on implementing advanced DA compression and increasing support for the Ethereum EIP-1559 fee mechanism, both of which will be deployed on the Scroll Mainnet shortly after the next protocol upgrade at the end of May.

ChainCatcher message, the cross-chain bridge Across will launch a new cross-protocol feature "Composable Cross-Chain," aimed at extending intent-based bridging design to the developer community. Developers on Ethereum Istanbul can get early access and contribute to a $10,000 prize pool.

ChainCatcher news, the NFT lending protocol ParaSpace's new official Twitter "Paraspace_Official" (founded by Yubo and the core development team) stated: In light of the recent chaotic events that have negatively impacted users, the core team plans to publicly share internal plans in the near future. Currently, three major protocol upgrades are being deployed, which will optimize protocol interest rates, gas fee optimization, time lock upgrades, and multi-chain deployment. Due to multi-signature control, these deployments are paused. The team is currently applying for the core developers to regain multi-signature qualifications to continue advancing this work.
