In 2013, Ethereum was just a simple White Paper reflecting a clear ambition to become an improved version of the Bitcoin network. In 10 years, the blockchain co-founded by Vitalik Buterin was gradually built. To this day, it arrogates to itself the status of large open-source and decentralized blockchain platform favorable to smart contracts and decentralized applications (dApps). To achieve this, the developers had to string together series of updates. Dencun, EIP-7503, Holesky… to which we grant this article, are among them. Details !
Ethereum Updates by Tim Beiko
After The Merge, Shanghai and many others, Ethereum is preparing to roll out other updates like Holesky and Dencun. Regarding the latter, please note that its deployment on the public testnet, scheduled for next November, has been postponed.
“ L’Ethereum ACDE 171 took place earlier today, covering the Dencun devnets, 4788 audits, the launch of Holesky, a new private ETH transfer proposal, and changes to the EIP-6780 specification. »
This long Twitter thread from Tim Beiko summarizes All Core Developer Execution (ACDE) 171 which took place on September 28. AMB Crypto focused on a point addressed by the participants in this meeting: Dencun.
Dencun is first of all a facilitator of changes in both layers of the Ethereum Mainnet. At the level of the execution layer, Dencun will have to supervise the execution of smart contracts. Side consensus layerit will revise the Ethereum consensus through staking.
According to Beiko, Ethereum carried out some audits for the EIP-4788 contract during ACDE 71. Small clarification: EIP-4788, as a hash tree of Beacon Chain, promotes the verification of the data of the consensus layer.
Tim Beiko already spoke about this subject two weeks ago. On the occasion, he discussed the improvement of validation schemes and the deployment of nodes.
But during his speech, Mr. Beiko provided ample details on the changes that will delight Beacon users. These changes would allow contracts on Beacon roots stand the test of blocking time. Experts from outside the Ethereum ecosystem (ChainSecurity and Dedaub) have also confirmed this, he argued.
