What’s Going Into the Pectra Upgrade?
Duration: 00:25:15
Speaker: Christine Kim
Type: Talk
Expertise: Beginner
Event: Devcon
Date: Nov 2024
A talk explaining the core EIPs going into the Pectra upgrade and the core EIPs still TBD for inclusion in Pectra. The talk will also touch on Pectra timing and fork scoping for the next hard fork after Pectra. Finally, the talk will share insights about the governance process of Ethereum in light of Pectra and takeaways about the priorities of Ethereum protocol developers.

Protocol Guild: funding the Ethereum commons
Ethereum produces shared resources within the commons frame. Protocol Guild is a way collectively fund the people maintaining the crucial underlying software, while rebalancing the incentives to do this work relative to the broader industry context. The entire ecosystem benefits when there is consistent incentives to recognize this work.

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).

Yul, eWasm, Solidity: Progress and Future Plans
Over the last months, the Yul language has matured and proved its flexibility. The Solidity team has implemented an optimizer and an eWasm dialect and is now full steam working on rewriting the Solidity code generator to produce Yul code to replace sequences of EVM instructions.The Yul optimizer now matches the old EVM optimizer and already surpasses it with features like function inlining and cross-function optimization. This is also the main reason why the new code generator can be written in a super-modular way. Furthermore, it can equally operate on EVM- and eWasm-flavoured Yul code, which is important to cope with the 256- to 64-bit translation.Through this, the Solidity compiler can now output eWasm code, which makes efficient use of 64 bit types. Furthermore, the new code generator includes automated overflow checks everywhere, again something that would have destroyed the old optimizer. Future work:We plan to use a more intricate formal system to remove redundant operations and checks based on range-relations between variables. The introduction of memory area types will help optimizing memory allocation. Finally, a super-optimizer could prove useful, since it is worth spending extra time on compilation to save gas.

Dare to be Solo Staking
I have been solo staking on my home computer since the very first day of the beacon chain. It's been a challenging journey, and I anticipate it will remain so in the coming years. This talk will delve into the time, financial, and technical commitments required for solo staking. It aims to provide a practical overview of the solo staker experience from an Ethereum enthusiast's perspective. I will highlight what is keeping us from a wider solo staking community.
