According to Cointelegraph, Ethereum developers plan to determine the mainnet launch date of the Dencun upgrade on next Thursday (February 8), which will introduce several EIPs, including proto-dank sharding expected to reduce Layer2 transaction costs.

In addition, Christine Kim, Vice President of Research at Galaxy Digital, stated that there is an 80% chance that the Dencun mainnet will be activated by the end of March. There's also a possibility for Dencun to go live by the end of February but she indicated this likelihood is quite small, close to 40%.
