Fusaka goes live on Sepolia.
EF 2026 Internship Program.
Stripe recurring stablecoin payments.
Gitcoin Grants 24 goes live.
The Fusaka upgrade has successfully activated on the Sepolia testnet, introducing 12 Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIPs) that improve scalability, performance, and user experience. Hoodi is scheduled to undergo the upgrade on October 28th. Testnet node operators must update their client software ahead of the activations. Since testnet rollouts have gone smoothly, Fusaka is likely to go live on Ethereum mainnet on December 3, 2025. Fusaka’s headline feature, PeerDAS (EIP-7594), brings higher blob throughput, significantly reducing L2 transaction costs and enhancing Ethereum scalability. After Fusaka, Blob Parameter Only (BPO) forks will gradually and automatically raise blob limits.
The Ethereum Foundation opened applications for its 2026 Internship Program, a paid, full-time, 12-week opportunity beginning in summer 2026. Students and recent graduates interested in Ethereum development or research can apply until December 1, 2025. Interns will work directly with Ethereum protocol, research, and ecosystem teams and contribute to active projects. Interns can work remotely or in EF offices. Mentoring teams include Cryptography Research, EthPandaOps, Geth, P2P Networking, STEEL, Robust Incentives Group (RIG), and Strategic Funding Coordination. The internship is designed for technically familiar, curious learners eager to deepen their understanding of Ethereum.
Stripe introduced support for recurring stablecoin payments on Polygon and Base. The new feature lets customers pay for subscriptions using USDC directly from their crypto wallets, while merchants can manage both fiat and stablecoin subscriptions in the Stripe Dashboard. Powered by a new smart contract that enables automatic recurring payments, the feature helps businesses lower cross-border transaction costs and expand their global customer reach. The rollout is currently live in private preview for U.S.-based businesses.
