Ethereum core developers postponed the Hoodi testnet fork due to potential contract failures linked to proposed gas cost changes under EIP-8037 and EIP-8038. These changes affect gas costs for certain operations and how gas is charged for state, potentially impacting projects relying on specific contract assumptions.

The fork will remain on hold until these issues are resolved to ensure network stability and security.
