Ethereum just leveled up. The Pectra upgrade—now live on mainnet—brings under-the-hood improvements that could reshape the network’s efficiency. No flashy new tokens, just foundational tweaks that keep the chain competitive.

Devs whisper about smoother operations, while traders yawn—until gas fees drop or the next DeFi exploit makes headlines. Because let’s face it: in crypto, the real ’upgrades’ still happen in speculative Telegram chats.

Note that many experts believe that Pectra could have a negative impact on the network and the pricing of its coin. This is particularly Presto Research analyst Jaeheng Ha, who pointed out the rise of inflationary pressures.

As for the price, business angel and cryptocurrency analyst Jack Green has previously stated that Ethereum often rises some time after major upgrades.
