Fusaka Upgrade, With PeerDAS Feature, Will Reduce Costs for Institutions Using Ethereum After Holesky Test Network Closure

The Fusaka hard fork, following Ethereum's Pectra upgrade, aims to reduce costs for institutions by introducing features like PeerDAS. Holesky test network, crucial for testing new code, will be shut down two weeks after Fusaka's mainnet launch. Ethereum developers plan two more testnet runs before finalizing Fusaka's mainnet launch date.
