The execution and consensus upgrades were initially rolled out at different times, but after [The Merge](/roadmap/merge/) in 2022 these have been deployed simultaneously. As-such, colloquial terms have emerged to simplify references to these upgrades using a single conjoined term. This began with the _Shanghai-Capella_ upgrade, commonly referred to as "**Shapella**", and is continued with the _Cancun-Deneb_ upgrade, which may be referred to as "**Dencun**."

<NetworkUpgradeSummary name="pectra" />
79+
80+
The Prague-Electra ("Pectra") upgrade includes several improvements to the Ethereum protocol aimed at enhancing the experience for all users, layer 2 networks, stakers and node operators.
81+
82+
Staking gets an upgrade with compounding validator accounts, and improved control over staked funds using the execution withdrawal address. EIP-7251 increases the max effective balance for a single validator to 2048, improving capital efficiency for stakers. EIP-7002 allows an execution account to securely trigger validator actions, including exiting, or withdrawing portions of the funds, improving the experience for ETH stakers, while helping strengthen accountability for node operators.
83+
84+
Other parts of the upgrade focus on improving the experience for regular users. EIP-7702 brings the ability for a regular non-smart-contract account ([EOA](/glossary/#eoa)) to execute code similar to a smart contract. This unlocks unbounded new functionality for traditional Ethereum accounts, such as transaction batching, gas sponsorship, alternative authentication, programmable spending controls, account recovery mechanisms and more.
