Odaily Planet Daily reports that Ethereum core developers have postponed the Glamsterdam upgrade fork on the Hoodi testnet until security issues involving eight smart contract invariants are resolved. The Ethereum Foundation said EIP-8037 and EIP-8038 adjust the way Gas fees are charged for certain operations, which could affect projects that rely on fixed Gas cost assumptions.
Smart contract auditing firm ChainSecurity published a report on October 13 warning that the two proposals could break smart contracts that rely on fixed Gas assumptions when external calls fail. The Glamsterdam upgrade launched on the Sepolia testnet on October 6. (Cointelegraph)
