TREE NEWS update: Ethereum developers will not fork Glamsterdam on the Hoodi testnet until smart contract risks are resolved, with the team investigating concerns tied to eight smart contract invariants linked to EIP-8037 and EIP-8038. The two proposals are part of the Glamsterdam upgrade package. No timeline was given for when the review would conclude.

The delay is notable less for the timeline slip than for where it surfaced: a testnet fork held back over smart contract invariants tied to two specific EIPs in the Glamsterdam package. That points to upgrade risk concentrated in contract-level behavior rather than consensus mechanics, a category that tends to be harder to test and more consequential for applications built on top. The absence of a review timeline leaves the fork's path to mainnet genuinely open. Whether the eight invariants are resolved cleanly or force scope changes to EIP-8037 and EIP-8038 is the thing to watch.
