Ethereum Cat Herders |
Welcome to the Ethereum Cat Herders' website, the go-to place to get the latest news on Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIP), core clients' updates, testnets updates, and other processes around the network upgrade.
Our aim is to bring the minimum amount of order that chaos needs to move Ethereum forward.
Read our journey with Ethereum ecosystem - Review 2020: The Ethereum Cat Herders
Follow Ethereum network upgrade with us.
The process tracker helps with tracking EIPs and clients’ development & integration can be followed on the latest version of the developer's testnet. Read Shedding light on the Ethereum Network Upgrade Process for more information.

The Ethereum Cat Herders are a group of independent contributors serving the Ethereum community. We are here to support Ethereum developer teams by coordinating Hard Forks, monitoring EIPs, creating PM processes and retroactive reports, relaying information between teams, taking notes during All Core Devs calls and much more.
