Ethereum Foundation Review
Ethereum Foundation reviews four reports on deployed contracts that may fail under Glamsterdam’s proposed gas rules.
Hoodi Test Fork Delay
Hoodi test fork delayed until Nov. 19 with no new date for activation after concerns about gas accounting affecting deployed contracts.
State Gas Rules Impact
EIP-8037 and EIP-8038 changes could alter gas usage in contracts, risking transaction reverts if state gas pool is insufficient.
Contract Failure Risks
Contracts may continue running after failed calls if gas is restored, but this could cause transaction reverts depending on code paths.
The key point
Ethereum Foundation delays Hoodi test fork until Nov. 19 after reviewing four reports on potential contract failures under Glamsterdam’s proposed gas rules.
