Ethereum Merge Having Issues? Before The Scheduled Upgrade, Developers Discover Bugs

Even if the impending Ethereum Merge is one of the most eagerly awaited events in the crypto ecosystem right now, it is not without its challenges. But when problems do exist, Ethereum developers act quickly to fix them.

Ethereum Merge Having Issues? Before The Scheduled Upgrade, Developers Discover Bugs

A defect that leads to a corrupted state has been discovered, according to Péter Szilágyi, a software developer for Ethereum (ETH), who made the announcement on Twitter. He clarified that it was most likely one of the pull requests for the online pruner or new storage model that was merged.

In a subsequent update, the developer stressed that users of the version will probably experience database corruption and data loss as a result of the issue. He further explained that the problem of data loss occurs at shutdown, which is why their tests failed to detect the defect.

To fix the bug, Go Ethereum released a hotfix. The team recommended people who upgraded to go back and try again to ensure that everything was operating as it should. As they tweeted:

Szilágyi recommended the community to hold off until the builders were finished once the patch was released in order to be sure they would be using the “good version.” On Twitter, the developer expressed regret for failing to catch the problem during testing and made a commitment to improve future stress tests. The developer also expressed gratitude to everyone who provided assistance in resolving the problem.

In addition to having an impact on the economy, the impending Ethereum Merge forces miners to make a decision. Some claim that a proof-of-work (PoW) Ethereum hard fork could be the answer for miners. However, a few mining pools have indicated that they are switching to staking.
