Other clients also reported the same issue. VanDerWijden said the team found that Go Ethereum (Geth) client nodes facing difficulty syncing with the Zhejiang testnet.

“The last 4 and a half stressful hours of debugging culminated in this amazing bug fix. We got reports that geth nodes wouldn’t sync the Zhejiang devnet correctly. The issue was that if a block body was empty (no tx, no withdrawals) we wouldn’t initialize it correctly.”

However, developers believe the problem can be fixed with a patch as it’s fairly easy to test. In addition, core developer Tim Beiko asserts an additional Hive test is proposed for ensuring the issue is resolved correctly.

Interestingly, Ethereum core developers think the issue likely will not impact the Sepolia upgrade scheduled on February 28 at 4 AM UTC. The client releases for the upgrade and blog on the same will be announced early next week.

Ethereum’s Shanghai upgrade will happen in March which will enable withdrawals of Ethereum staked as well as rewards on the Beacon chain. It is triggered by three testnets Zhejiang, Sepolia, and Goerli.

Shapella refers to two Ethereum upgrades, “Shanghai” and “Capella”, allowing withdrawals on the execution layer and enhancing the Beacon Chain consensus layer. Other changes also reduce gas fees on the network.

Other topics such as 4844 transaction changes, SSZ, RPC, and SELFDESTRUCT improvements were also discussed at Ethereum’s All Core Developers Conference Executive meeting on Thursday.

Image
The Charles Schwab Corp. (NYSE: SCHW)  is among the most affected financial firms facing a drop in customer deposits due to the increased interest rate environment in the United States, according to its Q3 2023 report. This presents a real challenge for a company that relies primarily on clients’ uninvested cash to fund its interest-earning businesses. Charles Schwab’s consumer bank deposits tumbled 28% year-over-year (YoY), causing its net interest revenue to drop 23.5% in the third quarter, which also negatively affected its quarterly revenue of $4.61 billion (-16.2% from Q2). A recent post on X (Twitter) by the event-driven trader Gurgavin Chandhoke highlights Charles Schwab as the financial company with more accumulated losses in bank deposits since Q3 2022. BANK DEPOSITS OVER THE LAST 1 YEAR BMO UP 21% AMERICAN EXPRESS 20% SCOTIABANK UP 9% CIBC UP 4% RBC UP 3% JP MORGAN DOWN 1.2% CITI DOWN 2.5% GOLDMAN DOWN 2.5% TD DOWN 2.6% BANK OF AMERICA DOWN 3% WELLS FARGO D...
