Ethereum Goerli Testnet to Go Through Shanghai Upgrade on March 14th

Ethereum developers target March 14th for the Goerli testnet to run through the Shanghai upgrade. All that’s left after the Goerli test is for Ethereum developers to set the date for mainnet.

During Thursday’s execution layer 156 meeting, Ethereum core developers showed a general consensus that Ethereum’s main blockchain would receive a Shapella upgrade 3-4 weeks after Goerli, which would mean that the staked ETH withdrawals would occur in April, a slight delay from the original timeline that Ethereum developers set for March.

Earlier this week, the Sepolia testnet went through the Shanghai upgrade, and Ethereum developers said that everything ran smoothly.
