Speaker: Parithosh Jayanthi

Type: Talk

Expertise: Intermediate

Emilie - Making sure EOF is done right

We present Emilie. Emilie is designed to ensure the correct implementation of the EVM Object Format (EOF) by testing compilers and execution clients. It re-executes mainnet transactions using EOF bytecode instead of original bytecode, comparing results and performance with the original execution. Emilie tests interactions between EOF and legacy contracts using real data. It supports recompilation for Solidity and Vyper, enabling it to find bugs across compilers and execution clients.

Protec and Attac: Programmatic Execution Layer Consensus Tests

We'll give an overview of Ethereum Execution Spec Tests (EEST), the new Python framework used since Shanghai to generate test vectors for Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) implementations. By generating tests programmatically this modular framework allows test cases to be readily parametrized and dynamically executed against clients on live networks. It tightly integrates with the Ethereum Execution Layer Specification (EELS) and could potentially be used across the L2 EVM ecosystem.

Ethereum in 25 Minutes, Version MMXVII

So what are all of the different moving parts of the Ethereum blockchain? What are uncles, how do contracts call other contracts, who runs them? What is the role of proof of work and proof of stake, and what exactly is gas? What will EIP86 do for you? Vitalik Buterin provides a 25-minute technical overview of the ethereum blockchain, start to finish, and explain many of these concepts in detail.

Native Account Abstraction in Pectra, rollups and beyond: combining EOF, EIP-7702 and RIP-7560

Account Abstraction has rightfully become one of the most discussed topics in the Ethereum ecosystem. The upcoming Pectra upgrade is set to be the first one to improve EOAs by including EIP-7702. But can EIP-7702 alone achieve "Account Abstraction"? We will discuss the challenges and benefits of EIP-7702, and break down the team's vision for achieving "complete" Native Account Abstraction with RIP-7560/EIP-7701 and how it differs from ERC-4337 + EIP-7702.

How long non-finality could kill Ethereum preview

How long non-finality could kill Ethereum

After the merge, Ethereum has a finality gadget to provide an economic assurance that transactions will never be reverted. When 2/3 of the validator set are online and agree, we finalize. Otherwise, we enter a period of non-finality which can be very long, up to a few weeks. Long non-finality has never happened in Ethereum's history and could trigger a cascade of failures that will kill liveness. How can we harden the network against this? How high are the stakes?

Exploring the Future of Account Abstraction

Discover the journey of Ethereum's Account Abstraction (AA) from inception to its current state, challenges tackled by ERC-4337, and future roadmap: modular native AA approach for L2 and L1, and EOA improvement (EIP-7702).

EVM Object Format (EOF): Managing the Bytecode Chaos

Currently, EVM bytecode, while being powerful and simple, is lacking structure. This leads to many complexities when introducing new EIPs and maintaining backwards compatibility. In this talk, we illustrate some use cases of the EVM Object Format (EOF). Next, we provide a quick overview of the main changes introduced by the EOF and related EIPs, along with code examples. Finally, we discuss potential benefits and drawbacks that could arise with the introduction of EOF

Revm Endgame

Revm is a critical component of the Ethereum ecosystem, used by builders, toolings and clients. It is an audited and proven library that is both fast and easy to use. As more projects adopt Revm, I feel the increasing burden of making breaking changes and the need to consolidate its functionality. That’s why I am thinking about Revm Endgame, a solution to support experimentation, Layer 2 features, and EIPs without the need for repository forks.
