Ethereum's latest upgrade, Fusaka, initiates a new schedule for hard forks, aiming for two major updates each year. The upgrade introduces significant changes, including PeerDAS for improved data sampling and enhancements to transaction costs and scalability. Fusaka marks a shift in Ethereum's development pace following the Merge.

Celo's Head of Growth, Anna Alexa, discussed recent updates and the company's role as a title sponsor at Binance Blockchain Week. A major upgrade is proposed for Celo to transition from an Ethereum-compatible layer 1 to an Ethereum layer 2, featuring a decentralized sequencer and off-chain data availability.

Ethereum researchers are proposing Fork-Choice Enforced Inclusion Lists (FOCIL) to enhance censorship resistance in the upcoming Hegota upgrade. This mechanism aims to ensure that valid transactions are included on-chain promptly, reducing the risk of centralized intermediaries filtering transactions. The proposal, initially deferred from a previous upgrade, addresses concerns about centralization in Ethereum's builder market.
