The Future of EOF: Layer 1, Layer 2, and Beyond!
Duration: 00:22:43
Speaker: Danno Ferrin
Type: Talk
Expertise: Intermediate
Event: Devcon
Date: Nov 2024
While the EVM Object Format provides a mechanism to modernize the EVM, the container format itself provides a stable path for innovation and experimentation within the base and rollup layers of ethereum, as well as rollup layers, and even chain free execution.
In this presentation we will show how the structure of the EOF container may be adapted to support these potential use cases.

EVM Object Format (EOF) - History and motivation
EOF is one of the important parts of the upcoming Pectra upgrade, delivering long-standing feature requests to the EVM. This talk aims to provide insight into its history, significance, and role in Ethereum and EVM improvement, and explore the rationale for including it in the next upgrade, its potential impacts and implications, as well as long-term advantages and possible challenges.

What Alternative Blockchains Compatibility with Ethereum Tooling Can Teach Us About Ethereum's Future
In this talk the various techniques that some L1s and L2s use to provide EVM and RPC compatibility with end user and developer tooling will be examined. Special attention will be paid to features (address aliasing and expansion, RPC handing of system contracts, account abstraction) of other blockchains that Ethereum developers have discussed with an eye towards the compatibility issues they introduce.

Trains, Planes and Network Upgrades: A Regular Release Cadence
How does an Ethereum Improvement Proposal (EIP) get deployed onto the Ethereum mainnet? At times it feels like an ‘80s buddy comedy, but as part of the Ethereum 1.x initiative, the process should become as predictable as a clock. In this talk, we will propose a regularly scheduled process modeled after Linux distributions and the Java platform that Ethereum could use for its future network upgrades. Frequent and regular network upgrades will remove the time pressure to submit and review EIPs, provide predictability to applications building on Ethereum and reduce the burden on core developers to begin implementing improvements that are not ready. Once a network upgrade leaves the station, another one will be coming right around the corner!

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.

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).

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 Execution Layer Specifications (EELS)
An introduction and walk-through of the executable specifications for the Ethereum Execution Layer. Github (https://github.com/ethereum/execution-specs) EELS is an implementation of the EVM in Python that has been optimised for readability. A great tool for EIP authors looking to prototype new ideas on the EVM, it is easy to understand as well as update with new features.

EVMMAX. Fast Modular Arithmetic in EVM
On the top of EVM Object Format we build an extension which allows contract developers to implement optimized advanced cryptography functions. This feature allows us to implement existing and future ECC precompiles counterparts directly in EVM. Adding new ECC functions (i.e. bls precompiles or functions based on a new, unknown yet, elliptic curve) to the protocol won't require introducing new precompiles. It can be achieved easier and without any risk for the consensus.
