The "EOF Controversy" that has caused a stir in the Ethereum community today is essentially a misunderstanding by onlookers who have mixed up two events: the Pectra launch on May 7 is for the delivery of finished apartments, while Fusaka is the expansion project scheduled for next year; the two are not on the same timeline!
Retail investors should focus on:
Before May 7: Keep a close eye on the Pectra launch and stake ETH to earn 4.2% annualized (rent will still be collected during the renovation period).
September ambush point: When the Fusaka testnet starts, focus on targeting Layer 2 tokens (ARB/OP will benefit from the EOF upgrade).
Any KOL shouting "Pectra will cause EOF to skyrocket" should be blocked immediately—official sources have already debunked this!
Pectra upgrade (May 7): EIP-7702 makes wallets smarter, and EIP-7251 raises the individual validator staking limit from 32 ETH to 2048 ETH.
Fusaka upgrade (September-October): This is the real "rebuild from scratch," aiming to establish new smart contract standards with EOF and the data expansion technology PeerDAS.
