Ethereum Activates the Pectra Upgrade on Mainnet, Boosting Major UX and Scalability Changes

The Ethereum development team activates the long-awaited “Pectra” mainnet update today, which delivers advanced improvements for network scalability, validator operation enhancements, as well as improved user experience.

Pectra is live on Ethereum mainnet!

– Smart account wallet UX features now active
– L2 scaling data storage blobs increased by 2x
– Validator UX improvements live

Community members will continue to monitor for any issues over the next 24 hours.

— Ethereum.org (@ethereum) May 7, 2025

The network achieved a major milestone when Upgrade “Pectra” entered mainstream operation during epoch 364032, which occurred at approximately 10:00 a.m. UTC. Smart accounts, together with elevated staking entry points, represent key transformative elements, while layer-2 solutions now process greater amounts of data under this update.

Key EIPs Powering Pectra

The Pectra update implements Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIPs) EIP-7702, EIP-7251, and EIP-7691 as essential components of its framework.

  • The account abstraction standard delivered through EIP-7702 enables externally owned accounts (EOAs) to behave as smart contracts. With smart account capabilities enabled, users can use alternative tokens beyond Ethereum for gas fees while enjoying streamlined transaction execution. Developers report that this functionality enables “Web2-like” UX improvements and gasless transactions, which help make Ethereum more accessible to new users.
  • Through EIP-725,1 institutions and major validators obtain increased operational efficiency by expanding validator staking limits up to 2,048 ETH from their former restriction of 32 ETH.
  • EIP-7691 improves Ethereum’s scalability because it enhances data blob per block performance, which results in doubled layer-2 rollup throughput and uniformly lower transaction fees.

Smart Wallets and UX Get a Boost

The active deployment of smart account wallet UX features reduces user dependence on continuous approvals and signature verification requests. New automation capabilities alongside granular permission systems enhance security alongside usability in this update.

Developers assert that customers now have the ability to give selected app functions to smart wallets without providing these apps total authority, thus securing users against threats.

Staking and Validator Experience Improved

The Pectra update provides easier staking functionality along with new features dedicated to users. Staking operations now finish more quickly because validators can leave the system within 13 minutes instead of spending 13 hours as before. Through EIP-6110, validators now supply deposits directly at the execution-layer block level, thereby improving communication with the consensus layer.

The enhanced backend architecture removes complexity for staking service providers and institutional users, which enables matching the infrastructure requirements of a developing ecosystem.

Monitoring and Outlook

Over the next 24 hours, the Ethereum Foundation and its developer community plan to watch the network closely to confirm effective functioning after the update. The Ethereum network moves closer to its goal of becoming an enhanced platform with better scalability and security through the foundational update Pectra.
