TL;DR: Ethereum developers have postponed the next Glamsterdam hard-fork step on the Hoodi testnet after researchers identified applications that may depend on gas-accounting assumptions the upgrade would change. The Ethereum Foundation is asking teams to audit code before the process advances. Ethereum’s next major protocol upgrade has hit an important compatibility check.

The concern is not that the Ethereum network has stopped functioning.
