Ethereum closes in on Dencun mainnet following Sepolia activation

The Dencun upgrade was activated on the second of three Ethereum testnets as proto-danksharding inches closer to the mainnet.

The gradual roll-out of the Dencun upgrade continues within the Ethereum ecosystem — this time with no hiccups — as the multiple Ethereum Improvement Proposal (EIP) upgrade is activated on the Sepolia testnet.

As Cointelegraph previously reported, the Dencun network upgrade was activated on the Goerli testnet on Jan. 17, introducing several EIPs, including EIP-4844, which enables proto-danksharding, a highly anticipated improvement touted to reduce layer-2 transaction fees.
