TAIKO-1,09%

Golden Finance reports that the Ethereum L2 network Taiko officially launched a new public Testnet called Hoodi on September 25. This Testnet has now become its main developer environment, and Hoodi will serve as the primary testing environment for developers of TaikoRollup (Layer 2) based on Ethereum. Meanwhile, the long-serving Hekla Testnet will be decommissioned on September 30, a move that aligns with the Ethereum Foundation's decision to abandon the Holesky Testnet upon which Hekla is based.
