Some testing updates from Devnet-8 and Holesky testnet were presented at a recent Execution Layer Meeting between Ethereum Foundation and core developers. The test network for the Cancun upgrade, the Devnet-8, was just recently activated.
Recent changes about Devnet-8 and the Holesky testnet were shared during the Execution Layer Meeting by Parithosh Jayanthi, a DevOps at the Ethereum Foundation. This was in reaction to Tim Beiko, an Ethereum core engineer, who requested a meeting to discuss a number of other issues.

This upgrade would replace Goerli as a staking, infrastructure and protocol-developer testnet. “We’d like to bring up testing updates from Devnet-8 and Holesky updates (We tested out 1.4 million validators and more than 1B Ether in the network and would like to propose the same for Holesky).”
