Show notes
We’re joined by Tim Beiko, Ethereum Foundation coordinator, to break down Ethereum’s next major upgrades and the future of scaling. We explore the upcoming Petra hard fork, which introduces validator consolidation, increased blob space for rollups, and EIP-7702 for improved account abstraction. Tim also shares insights on Fusaka and Glacier Dam, Ethereum’s roadmap for scaling, and how Ethereum’s upgrade process is becoming more efficient. ------ 📣SPOTIFY PREMIUM RSS FEED | USE CODE: SPOTIFY24 https://bankless.cc/spotify-premium ------ BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS: 🪙FRAX | SELF SUFFICIENT DeFi https://bankless.cc/Frax 🦄UNISWAP | SWAP ON UNICHAIN https://bankless.cc/unichain ⚖️ARBITRUM | SCALING ETHEREUM https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum 🛞MANTLE | MODULAR LAYER 2 NETWORK https://bankless.cc/Mantle 🌐CELO | BUILD TOGETHER AND PROSPER https://bankless.cc/Celo 🏦INFINEX | THE CRYPTO-EVERYTHING APP https://bankless.cc/Infinex ----- ✨ Mint the episode on Zora ✨ https://zora.co/coin/base:0x0d142a1a30adcbc06c3c2a537d2cd1a9b7901c35?referrer=0x077Fe9e96Aa9b20Bd36F1C6290f54F8717C5674E ------ TIMESTAMPS 0:00 Intro 5:43 Current State of EIPs & ETH Hard Forks 8:01 Why Security Is So Important 12:43 Naming Conventions of ETH Hard Forks 13:55 Pectra Upgrade & Its Effects 16:15 Maxeb Upgrade & Its Effects 24:29 Hard Forks, Bandwidth & Scaling 28:51 Other Updates Regarding Pectra 31:40 EOAs & Smart Contract Wallets 36:17 Smart Contract Wallets' Effect on Layer 2 43:15 Timeline of Fusaka & Glamsterdam 48:09 Vitalik's Tweet on Fusaka 51:15 Alcore Devs' Plans 54:25 What's EOF 59:18 Other Updates Regarding Fusaka 1:00:41 Uncertainty Regarding Glamsterdam 1:02:18 ETH's Slowness & Developers 1:05:19 Misconceptions Around ETH 1:07:32 Scaling the Layer 1 1:14:52 Summer of Protocols 1:18:13 Closing & Disclaimers ------ RESOURCES Tim Beiko https://x.com/TimBeiko Ethereum Roadmap & Hard Forks https://ethereum.org/en/roadmap/ EIP-7702 (Account Abstraction) https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-7702 Ethereum Object Format (EOF) https://ethresear.ch/t/ethereum-object-format-eof/ ------ Not financial or tax advice.
