The Hoodi testnet will replicate Ethereum mainnet conditions, including a similar validator count and approximately 20 million test-staked Ether distributed across 11 client teams and five staking operators
Ethereum Foundation developers decided to launch a third testnet named Hoodi to address issues encountered during the Pectra upgrade tests on previous networks
The Hoodi testnet is scheduled to launch on March 17, 2025, with the Pectra upgrade activated on it by March 26, 2025
Ethereum's previous testnets, Holesky and Sepolia, faced significant configuration and synchronization issues during their attempts to test the Pectra upgrade
The Ethereum Foundation chose to create the Hoodi testnet specifically to test validator exits, avoiding complications that would arise from clearing Holesky's exit queue
The Ethereum Foundation developers may activate the Pectra upgrade on the Ethereum mainnet as early as April 25, 2025, provided the upgrade runs smoothly on the Hoodi testnet
