On May 7, 2025, Ethereum successfully deployed the Pectra upgrade, integrating 11 improvement proposals (EIPs). Among the most notable:
EIP-7702: Allows external accounts to function like smart contracts, facilitating payments in tokens other than ETH.
EIP-7251: Increases the staking limit from 32 ETH to 2,048 ETH, simplifying operations for large validators.
EIP-7691: Enhances scalability by increasing the number of data blobs per block.
Although this upgrade did not immediately impact the price of ETH, it strengthens the fundamentals of the network for increased future adoption.
