Updating Gas Cost Schedule based on reproducible benchmarks

Duration: 00:07:59

Speaker: Jacek Glen

Type: Lightning Talk

Expertise: Intermediate

Event: Devcon

Date: Nov 2024

Sponsored by the Ethereum Foundation, our project evaluates the real cost of executing OPCODEs and procompiles in EVMs across diverse clients. We present the up-to-date benchmarks, the new Gas Cost Schedule proposal, a do-it-yourself solution to reproduce measurements in your environment, and an automated way to generate new proposals for each hard fork.

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.

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).

ETH++: A roadmap to (real) decentralization in a world of centralized power

Unfortunately, trends in block building and MEV furnish rapid centralization pressures that erode the protocol guarantees we gather here to build for Ethereum. We must now define a roadmap to save proof-of-stake. This requires help from builders, transaction originators, protocol designers, and you. We will demistify the hype on how and if trusted hardware (TEEs) can help us decentralize. Let's focus on geographical diversity and permissionless designs, to bring the world together.

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.

EIPs Simplified: History and Process Explained

It is planned to be an easy-to-understand session about Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIPs). We'll explore the interesting history of EIPs and the important moments that have shaped different types and categories of proposals. Learn how EIPs go from an idea to becoming part of the Ethereum network, and see how editors help improve the standardization process. This talk is perfect for anyone who wants to learn about EIPs without getting into technical details.

How to Ethically Build Public Good Infrastructure

We at Status have been working to enable an interface to Web3 since our inception. We bought into the principles of this ecosystem, and have spent extraordinary effort to not compromise on those ethics while we continue to create applications that are easily accessible while also maintaining our user's rights. This talk is an overview of this journey, lessons learned, the fruits of this labor, why we're doubling down on this process, and why you should to.

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?
