Ethereum L2 network Taiko launches Hoodi public testnet, Hekla testnet to be discontinued soon

Jinse Finance reported that 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 will serve as the primary testing environment for developers working on Taiko's Ethereum-based Rollup. Meanwhile, the long-serving Hekla testnet will be decommissioned on September 30, in line with the Ethereum Foundation's decision to retire the Holesky testnet on which Hekla was based.
