#CZ'sTokenModelIdea Ethereum developers are addressing issues with validators in the Holesky test network

AI summary

According to PANews, Christine Kim, Vice President of Research at Galaxy Digital, shared an update on the Ethereum Holesky test network via platform X. Developers gathered on Friday to discuss the implementation of significant penalties and the acceleration of the exit of inactive validators. However, there appears to be a shortage of active validators in the test network, leading to instability in advancing the plan. As a result, developers decided to extend the deadlines to the weekend to allow more active validators to join Holesky, with coordinated penalty actions scheduled no later than Monday. Participants who are running Holesky validators are strongly encouraged to connect them to the network in a timely manner and remove their penalty protection database. Additionally, another vulnerability affecting Geth and Nethermind clients was recorded during the Holesky event, through the Pectra audit competition. It's important to note that this issue is not related to the previously reported vulnerability of incorrect configuration of the deposit contract address.
