London Hardfork to be delayed?
The much-awaited deployment of London Hardfork which was scheduled for Aug 4 can now be tentatively postponed. According to the ETH2 developers, the team will consider the optimal solution for network security, and any delay in the hard fork will be due to security concerns.
Prior to the London hard fork, the ETH2 developer team addressed the concerns of miners and traders. The team discovered and addressed a flaw in the code. However, if there are any more security issues, the hard fork may be postponed.
On the next AllCoreDevs call, the developers will debate the best technique for securing the Ethereum network.
With a possibility of delay in London Hardfork, ETH could fall short of a strong catalyst to uphold its price action. Hence, it is to be watched out for how ETH performs alongside the support of the broader crypto market.
