Ethereum's Glamsterdam delay highlights a difficult part of scaling: protecting contracts already in use.
In its November 9 update, the Ethereum Foundation reported four submissions identifying deployed contracts that could break under proposed gas changes. The Hoodi upgrade remains delayed while the issues are reviewed.
The next checkpoints are audit reports scheduled for November 13, a public discussion on November 16, and possible next steps on November 19. No decision is pre-committed.
Can Ethereum increase capacity while preserving the assumptions existing apps depend on? The audit findings should make that trade-off clearer.
