mkalinin commented

The material to facilitate discussion around the Merge planned for ACD 106.

Spec drafts

Eth1 client modifications

  • eth1-eth2 communication protocol
  • state and chain sync
  • new opcodes (RANDOM, BEACONBLOCKROOT, etc)
  • block storage (block number, block hash, fork choice)
  • consensus part (ethash, difficulty, timestamp, rewards)

Breaking changes

  • BLOCKHASH opcode (either randomness or verification)
  • DIFFICULTY opcode
  • guarantee of storing entire block history by full nodes

Argh, argh. Sorry for writing the same message over and over: but - also here - actually loved the fact that we finally had some dedicated issues on these things (HF timing, merge,...), would find it very valuable to keep this open (or - again - is there another go-to place here?). 😋
