Smart contract developer interview: Effects of Ethereum upgrades (EIPs) on live contracts.
I was asked this question during a smart contract developer interview, and I wasn’t sure how to answer:
How do Ethereum’s upgrades (like EIPs) affect smart contracts that are already live?
Do live contracts automatically adjust to the upgrades, or do developers need to make changes to implement new features? Also, could there be any issues like compatibility challenges or increased gas costs?
If anyone has experience dealing with this, I’d really appreciate your insights to better understand!
