<p>Developers of <a href="https://www.thecoinrepublic.com/2023/12/23/yearn-finance-price-trend-and-projections-for-the-next-five-years/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Ethereum</a> are actively conducting tests for the upcoming Dencun upgrade which is expected to be released next year. The upgrade will introduce capacity for data storage through a new method called “proto-danksharding.” During a biweekly call held on Thursday, the developers discussed that they plan to run Dencun through the Goerli test network (testnet) by Jan. 17.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>This highly anticipated upgrade will reduce fees for layer 2 rollups and expand the blockchain by creating more space for “blobs” of data.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>Ethereum developers are heating up their testing process for the upcoming Dencun upgrade, a major milestone expected next year that would add capacity for data storage via a new process known as “proto-danksharding.”</p> 
<p>During a biweekly call on Thursday, the developers discussed that they plan to execute the Goerli test network (testnet) through Dencun on January 17th. This upgrade will enable “proto-danksharding,” which reduces fees for layer 2 rollups and scales the blockchain by increasing space for “blobs” of data.</p> 
<p>Tim Beiko, who is the protocol support lead at the Ethereum Foundation, mentioned on the call that they can always cancel if they find any major issue or something out of the ordinary before the scheduled date.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>The developers have outlined a preliminary timeline for testing Dencun, which includes running it through various test networks such as Sepolia and Holesky before deploying it on the mainnet in late February.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>However, they have cautioned that these dates may change depending on the results of the testnet forks. Dencun will be the first major upgrade since Shapella earlier this year, which enabled staked ether withdrawals from the blockchain.</p>

<p>On December 21, ETH came close to the 50-day Exponential Moving Average.&nbsp; However, the buyers kept it off. This was indicating the end of the price correction. Currently, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization is trading at $2,288.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>If it surpasses $2,398, it could potentially climb further towards $2,956. The bears need to protect this level. If they fail to do so, Ethereum has the potential to grow and break major resistance levels.</p> 
<p>Alternatively, if ETH plunges below $1,993, the bears may have a slight advantage over the bulls and could use this to their benefit to pull the token down to the 150-day EMA. The price prediction is bullish considering that the bulls are seen with an advantage over the bears.&nbsp;</p>
