Changes to the L1 EVM versus L2s

Duration: 00:55:54

Speaker: lightclient, Alex Beregszaszi, Daniel, Eniko Garam, Mark Tyneway

Type: Panel

Expertise: Intermediate

Event: Devcon

Date: Nov 2024

The EVM has long been a target for improvement, but major changes have been postponed due to other priorities. As Ethereum's core, EVM modifications could significantly affect network stability, security, and performance, or add complexity. This necessitates lengthy approval and implementation processes. Panelists will explore new initiatives to implement EVM upgrades such as the EOF on L2s before L1, discussing their pros and cons.
