do Ethereum network upgrades function?<!-- --><\/h3>\n<p><!-- --><\/p>\n<p class=\"chakra-text css-gi02ar\">Ethereum network upgrades necessitate explicit commitment from node operators within the network. Although client developers reach a consensus on which EIPs are included in an upgrade, they are not the final arbiters of its acceptance.<!-- --><\/p>\n<p><!-- --><\/p>\n<p class=\"chakra-text css-gi02ar\">For the upgrade to be effective, validators and non-staking nodes must manually refresh their software to accommodate the protocol modifications being introduced.<!-- --><\/p>\n<p><!-- --><\/p>\n<p class=\"chakra-text css-gi02ar\">Should they utilize an Ethereum client that isn\u2019t updated to the current version (as listed above), it will disconnect from upgraded peers at the fork block, resulting in a split on the network. In this case, each group of network nodes will solely remain connected with those who possess the same (un)upgraded status.<!-- --><\/p>\n<p><!-- --><\/p>\n<p class=\"chakra-text css-gi02ar\">While the majority of Ethereum enhancements are non-controversial and occurrences leading to forks have been infrequent, the ability for node operators to coordinate on whether to endorse an upgrade or not is a significant aspect of Ethereum&#8217;s governance.<!-- --><\/p>\n<p><!-- --><\/p>\n<p class=\"chakra-text css-gi02ar\">For a more detailed insight into Ethereum&#8217;s governance process, see
