PRINCIPLES OF EIP STEWARDSHIP

Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

13 months of EIP 5792 development led to five principles: ship prototypes early, persist through reviews, engage stakeholders, cultivate champions, and make decisive progress. For 5792 specifically, showcasing early demos of batch and sponsored RPC methods secured support from MetaMask, Ambire, and first-party viem/wagmi libraries within weeks. Iterative stakeholder feedback (e.g., adding EOA support) and champion advocacy (e.g., jxom's viem/wagmi integration) amplified adoption.
