threadreaderapp.com4 min read

Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

The new EVM Object Format (EOF) optimizes the developer experience and increases the EVM's speed. PeerDAS improves Ethereum DA by allowing blobs to be sharded across nodes. BLS12-381, a new signature aggregation scheme, improves multisigs and proving things on the execution layer, while historical block hashes in the state will move validators toward verifying a transaction without needing all the data. Other upgrades include increasing the Ethereum validator maximum balance and smart contract account capabilities for regular wallets.
