Ethereum's Pectra upgrade successfully deployed on the Sepolia testnet, bringing it one step closer to mainnet release despite earlier testing challenges.

Ethereum (ETH) is up on Wednesday after developers fixed issues with the Pectra upgrade's deployment on the Sepolia testnet. The top altcoin aims to hold the $2,200 support level amid negative sentiments from Pectra's failure on testnets.

The Ethereum Pectra upgrade was successfully deployed on the Sepolia testnet, marking the final major test before its mainnet launch in April.
