🚀 Sui Mainnet Upgrades to Version 1.63.3 with Protocol Enhancements

According to Foresight News, the Sui mainnet has been upgraded to version 1.63.3, alongside a protocol upgrade to version 107. This update includes improvements to the path for transactions and states to reach final confirmation directly. It also addresses an issue where rejected transactions could lead to a lack of consensus among validation nodes. Additionally, the upgrade prohibits the use of validation nodes for transaction signatures and the submission of aggregated validation node signature transactions via the RPC interface.

🚀 Ethereum Developers Face Challenges in Glamsterdam Upgrade Timeline

Ethereum developers are confronting significant challenges in aligning the scope and timeline for the Glamsterdam upgrade, according to PANews. During the 173rd Ethereum consensus layer core developers meeting, it was acknowledged that substantial reductions in the upgrade's scale might be necessary to meet the mid-year launch target. Although developers have not explicitly confirmed a mismatch between the upgrade's scope and the proposed timeline, they recognize the potential issue and aim to resolve it by the end of February.

The meeting discussed the possibility of removing EIP 7732 from Glamsterdam if an interoperable version cannot be achieved by late February, postponing it to a future hard fork. Additionally, updates on other developments were shared: Consensys' Teku client team reported node performance issues discovered during mainnet stress testing, which are being addressed and have delayed their participation in Glamsterdam. EIP 7928 requires minor API change reviews by consensus layer clients, while the deadline for submitting the Headliner EIP proposal for the Hegota upgrade is February 4. Some client teams have completed preliminary work on library updates to support EIP-7688.

🚀 Ethereum Researcher Proposes Anti-Censorship Feature for 2026 Upgrade

Ethereum researcher Thomas Thiery, also known as soispoke, has proposed the inclusion of FOCIL as a core anti-censorship feature in the upcoming Hegota upgrade. According to BlockBeats, Hegota is Ethereum's second major upgrade scheduled for the latter half of 2026. FOCIL is a protocol layer mechanism that modifies Ethereum's fork choice rules, enforcing the inclusion of any valid transaction into on-chain blocks within a limited timeframe. This mechanism allows multiple validators to collectively enforce transaction inclusion, rather than relying on a single block builder.

The primary aim of this proposal is to reduce Ethereum's dependency on centralized validators, thereby mitigating potential risks of large-scale transaction censorship in the future. This enhancement is intended to bolster Ethereum's core value as a neutral and censorship-resistant blockchain. Thiery emphasized that without FOCIL, the protocol could be vulnerable to significant censorship events. He advocates for Ethereum to proactively design long-term resilience instead of passively responding to sudden censorship challenges.

🚀 Binance Futures to Upgrade WebSocket URL Architecture for Enhanced Stability

According to the announcement from Binance, the company has upgraded its USDⓈ-M Futures WebSocket URL architecture to support sustained growth in WebSocket traffic and enhance overall stability and scalability. This new structure aims to separate traffic by data category—Public, Market, and Private—thereby providing clearer routing, improved connection management, and better operational isolation.

The upgrade introduces three dedicated WebSocket base URLs: Public for high-frequency public market data, Market for regular market data, and Private for user data streams. The URLs are as follows: wss://fstream.binance.com/public for Public, wss://fstream.binance.com/market for Market, and wss://fstream.binance.com/private for Private. Both ws mode (path-based subscription) and stream mode (?streams=; Private uses listenKey + events) remain supported, along with combined streams. The Private URL supports listenKey + events subscription, allowing for multiple listenKeys and multiple events.

The new endpoints are available immediately, and users are advised to migrate to the new /public, /market, and /private WebSocket base URLs. This migration should be completed before 2026-04-23 to avoid trading interruptions when legacy URLs are permanently retired. An example of the new method includes Public (ws mode) at wss://fstream.binance.com/public/ws/btcusdt@depth, Market (stream mode) at wss://fstream.binance.com/market/stream?streams=btcusdt@markPrice, and Private (listenKey + events) at wss://fstream.binance.com/private/ws?listenKey=&events=ORDER_TRADE_UPDATE.

Users can find more information about endpoint and stream mapping in the API Change Log and the full API documentation on Binance Futures. It is crucial for users to ensure streams are routed to the correct endpoint category to maintain uninterrupted trading services.

🚀 Ethereum's Upcoming Glamsterdam Upgrade Progresses Amid Development Challenges

Ethereum Foundation has released its latest development update, indicating steady progress in the upcoming Glamsterdam upgrade. According to Foresight News, while the implementation of ePBS (protocol-level PBS) is complex, the related development network is stabilizing, and the block-level access lists (BALs) development network is advancing smoothly. The current goal is to launch the first generalized Glamsterdam development network next week if the ePBS development network remains stable, followed by client releases, security audits, and test network testing. Additionally, EIP-7954, aimed at increasing the maximum contract size, is likely to be prioritized.

The subsequent Hegotá upgrade has selected FOCIL (EIP-7805) as the core feature for the consensus layer, while the proposal for account abstraction (AA), EIP-8141, remains in a pending introduction (CFI) status due to lack of consensus. Non-core feature proposals for Hegotá were initiated on April 9. Regarding the network gas limit, the current benchmark target is set at 60 million, with higher limit testing ongoing. As for the upgrade timeline, Glamsterdam is unlikely to go live in the second quarter, and the progress of Hegotá will largely depend on the completion of the former.
