Ethereum Pectra Upgrade faced yet another issue due to a mysterious attacker.
The unknown attacker started sending zero-token transfers, leading to empty block mining.
Ethereum has been known for its weak market performance for the past several months. Even though the pectra upgrade brought some hopes to improve the network, its implementation is not going as per initial schedule. An unknown attacker exploited the upgrade on Sepolia mainnet recently. This further delayed the Pectra upgrade launch on the mainnet.
What Happened to the Pectra Upgrade on Sepolia?
The news came to light when one of the Ethereum developers, Marius Van Der Wijden, published a report on the issue. When the Pectra upgrade went live on March 5, developers started noticing error messages and creation of empty blocks. This issue arised when the deposit contract emitted an unexpected transfer event. It was supposed to create a deposit event instead of a transfer event.
