The formal verification of EIP-8282 highlights the growing role of rigorous checks in refining Ethereum's core code and addressing discrepancies. The post Ethereum Foundation and Verity formally verify EIP-8282, surfacing discrepancies for…
Older nodes can accept soft-fork blocks without understanding every new rule. A hard fork requires upgraded software to follow the changed network, but does not automatically create another coin.
The Ethereum co-founder backs keeping EIP-1559 but argues that maximizing fees could price out users and undermine decentralization.
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin says ETH should focus on store-of-value properties over fee burns, while keeping EIP-1559 and its burn mechanism.
Ethereum developers have postponed the next Glamsterdam hard-fork step on the Hoodi testnet after researchers identified applications that may depend on…
A November 6 appeal asks projects to test gas assumptions and report repair options that could shape Glamsterdam’s specifications. Read the full story on CryptoSlateUnderstand the crypto stories that matter and what…
Ethereum developers are investigating concerns tied to eight smart contract invariants tied to Glamsterdam’s EIP-8037 and EIP-8038.
Binance and Polymarket have asked Polygon for a one-time hard fork to move about 70.49 million POL out of five blocked hacker addresses and into recovery wallets. The post Binance and Polymarket…
Smart contracts often guess why a call failed by checking how much gas is left afterwards: if very little remains, they assume it ran out of gas. That works today because gas…
EIP-7702 changes security assumptions that have existed since Ethereum's earliest days. This talk studies the consequences for both existing smart contracts and users adopting 7702. We'll analyze deployed mainnet contracts to identify…
Polygon wants to move stolen POL back to victims, but the proposed fix raises bigger questions.
The proposal targets native POL only, leaving Binance's already-frozen USDT untouched.
As Ethereum’s gas limit rises, execution validation becomes increasingly expensive: every validator still depends on an execution client that re-executes each payload. EIP-8025 explores a different path—optional execution proofs that let consensus…
Polygon proposes a radical hard fork to wipe hacker wallets and save Binance and Polymarket funds, but breaking Web3’s main rule.
A member of the Polygon Labs Validator Support Team has proposed a hard fork of the Polygon PoS network to recover approximately 70.49 million POL, worth $6.5 million, stolen in separate incidents…
The proposed hard fork challenges blockchain immutability norms, potentially influencing future governance and trust in decentralized systems. The post Polygon proposes hard fork to recover $7M in stolen Binance, Polymarket funds appeared…
Polygon block producers have already frozen the stolen tokens, but a proposed hard fork would allow the funds to be recovered and returned to their owners.
Polygon faces a proposal to recover 70.49 million POL stolen in the Binance and Polymarket hacks through a hard fork, with governance talks set for Nov. 5.
Binance and Polymarket want a Polygon hard fork to move about 70.49 million frozen POL, worth ~$6.5 million, from attacker addresses to their wallets.
Funds tied to the Polymarket and Binance incidents would go to recovery wallets, without changing POL’s total supply.
With EIP-8141: Frame transaction selected for the Hegóta hardfork, it's a good time to share with the community what to expect when that upgrade arrives. We'll walk through the general structure of…
Lean Ethereum is usually presented as a destination but the path is not one hard fork but two roadmaps that have to converge, one of incremental mainnet changes and one of the…
Our EPF project centered on the EIP-7732 ePBS builder for Lodestar, part of preparing the client for the upcoming Gloas fork. We'll cover what we set out to build, how the design…
Account abstraction has been covered at Ethereum events for years, but almost always at the protocol layer or through the ERC-4337 bundler model. This talk covers newer ground: how native account abstraction…
FOCIL puts censorship resistance directly into consensus: each slot, a 16-validator committee broadcasts inclusion lists, and fork choice refuses to extend payloads that ignore them. We've been working on implementing EIP-7805 in…
Geth has three disconnected SSZ mechanisms and no shared implementation: fastssz in one file, zrnt behind the light client, and two hand-rolled merkleizers in beacon/types with TODOs from 2023 asking for an…
Every log query today runs on trust, dashboards, indexers and commercial RPCs assume the serving node is honest, nothing in a response is provable. Light clients cannot verify completeness, selective omission goes…
In the talk, I want to present the current state of Ethereum consolidations and provide a detailed overview of EIP-8148: Custom sweep threshold for validators. As one of the authors of this…
EIP-7923 enables 64MB of memory allocation per transaction through a sparse-page-based memory model with linearized gas costs. Today, the EVM’s quadratic memory pricing — designed to prevent DoS attacks — limits memory…
A crypto whale builds a $14 million Zcash position on Hyperliquid ahead of the NU7 hard fork, betting big on the privacy coin's upcoming 300% speed upgrade.
Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson has warned about “seriously dangerous code” while sharing an analysis that blames Ethereum’s EIP-7702 delegation feature for helping attackers rapidly empty a Binance hot wallet. In his X…
Accounts would keep their addresses and ordinary transaction capabilities, but the opt-out would not protect funds from a stolen private key.
Richard Teng said the attacker used a self-destruct mechanism and an EIP-7702 delegation that bypassed Binance's normal approval controls.
Binance is rebuilding its withdrawal service after a breach it estimates at $6.3 billion. Teng also said attackers destroyed tools and traces during the intrusion.
The hack of Binance's Ethereum on-chain relied on EIP-7702 to target at least one address and regular transfers for other addresses. The post How the Binance hack happened on-chain on Ethereum appeared…
A massive Binance exploit reveals how an attacker allegedly leveraged Ethereum EIP-7702 authorization to drain approximately $2.5 billion from a hot wallet, contributing to a total estimated security breach of $6.3 billion.
TL;DR Binance hack shows an attacker reportedly used Ethereum’s EIP-7702 authorization feature to drain approximately $2.5 billion from Binance’s Ethereum hot wallet. The attacker gained the ability to move funds without repeatedly…
EIP-7702 lets ordinary Ethereum wallets run smart contract code, enabling batched and sponsored transactions. Here's how it works.
Security experts say attackers could have drained Binance’s wallets without EIP-7702, but the Ethereum upgrade may have helped bypass withdrawal safeguards.
The delegated account later triggered a separate 780 million USDC transfer from a smart wallet it owns. Whether the movements were authorized remains unconfirmed.
