Today marks a historic milestone for the Ethereum ecosystem as the highly anticipated Pectra upgrade officially went live on mainnet. This comprehensive upgrade represents the most feature-packed update since the Dencun upgrade in March 2024, introdu...
Why this EIP needed? Validators Cast Their Votes by Signing a Message Containing: LMD GHOST Vote: (beacon_block_root, slot) [explained below] Casper FFG Vote: (source, target) [explained below] Committee Index: (index), which identifies the v...
Why this EIP neeeded? Currently, when the eth_feeHistory RPC method is called to fetch recent gas fee data, the EL queries the CL using the engine APIsengine_newPayloadV3 call to retrieve blobGasUsed and excessBlobGas. This creates unnecessary overh...
This is a foundational EIP that will serve as a basis for future EIPs, enabling further standardization of request_type. Why this EIP neeeded? Currently, communication between the Execution Layer (EL) and Consensus Layer (CL) is limited to block cr...
Why this EIP neeeded? Ethereum is scaling through a rollup-centric roadmap. The Dencun upgrade introduced blobs (EIP-4844), and initial monitoring showed network stability with the new gas target and a decrease in re-org rates. The inclusion of the ...
Why this EIP neeeded? The current calldata cost allows a maximum block size of 7.15 MB, while the average block size remains around 100 KB. The goal is to reduce the maximum calldata usage by increasing its cost. This primarily impacts data-centric ...
