Ethlabs urges pause on Glamsterdam decisions pending contract-impact audits

In a notice published by Odaily on November 10, 2026, at 17:49:51 UTC+08:00, Ethlabs recommended holding off on decisions about Ethereum’s proposed Glamsterdam upgrade until its potential effects on deployed smart contracts are clearer.

Ethlabs said it had spent more than two weeks monitoring and analyzing the possible impact of EIP-8037 and EIP-8038. External audit findings from Chain Security and Dedaub, commissioned by the Ethereum Foundation, were expected on November 16.

The team recommended waiting for those findings and a clear position before changing the specifications or scheduling a Hoodi testnet fork. It also urged application developers to run the Foundation’s self-check tool and report potential issues to [email protected]. These were recommendations about proposed next steps, not an announcement that the upgrade had been activated.
