Holesky Testnet Support Ends in September

The activation of the Pectra network upgrade on testnets exposed critical issues in client deposit contract configurations. While Sepolia quickly recovered from these challenges, Holesky faced extensive inactivity leaks as part of its recovery process.

Although Holesky has since finalized, the exit queue issue remains, requiring nearly a year for exited validators to be fully removed. A configuration issue affected three majority clients on the network, preventing them from properly tracking deposit contract addresses. This misconfiguration led to inconsistencies in deposit tracking, causing a breakdown in consensus among Holesky clients.
