Encrypted Mempools: a path to Ethereum L1
Duration: 00:09:25
Speaker: Marc Harvey-Hill
Type: Lightning Talk
Expertise: Intermediate
Event: Devcon
Date: Nov 2024
This talk will explore the future of encrypted mempools, paving the way to enshrinement on Ethereum L1. Starting from current designs such as Shutter and SUAVE, security assumptions and out-of-protocol infrastructure can be stripped away with cryptography including homomorphic encryption, VDFs, and delay encryption. These approaches would trustlessly bring front running protection and censorship resistance to the protocol.

Ethereum in 25 Minutes, Version MMXVII
So what are all of the different moving parts of the Ethereum blockchain? What are uncles, how do contracts call other contracts, who runs them? What is the role of proof of work and proof of stake, and what exactly is gas? What will EIP86 do for you? Vitalik Buterin provides a 25-minute technical overview of the ethereum blockchain, start to finish, and explain many of these concepts in detail.

BRAID: Implementing Multiple Concurrent Proposers
BRAID is a consensus specification for implementing concurrent leaders in ethereum from parallel chains. The talk will cover the design of braid. Technical challenges of alternative designs for multi proposer and, if time permits, other topics of interest in execution consensus seperation.

Exploring the Future of Account Abstraction
Discover the journey of Ethereum's Account Abstraction (AA) from inception to its current state, challenges tackled by ERC-4337, and future roadmap: modular native AA approach for L2 and L1, and EOA improvement (EIP-7702).

Insights from block propagation in the Ethereum P2P network
Libp2p’s Gossipsub protocol is one of the most critical pieces of the Ethereum protocol stack, disseminating blocks between nodes on time and ensuring that misbehaving nodes are rejected from the network. ProbeLab has studied the performance of Gossipsub in Ethereum’s P2P network, building tooling to monitor block propagations and spot abnormalities. We revealed ample space for optimisation in the protocol, which will help define the next steps in Ethereum's roadmap. Come and hear our findings!

EVM Charts 2024: What's hot? What's not?
Thanks to the openness and transparency of blockchain we can study how developers actually use it. In this session we will compare the usage of EVM on mainnet from the last Devcon to this Devcon. Including questions like: * Which opcodes have become more/less popular? * Which precompiles have become more/less popular? * Has average memory consumption increased/decreased? * How actively are new features being used? * Are transactions getting more complicated?

Ethereum Execution Layer Specifications (EELS)
An introduction and walk-through of the executable specifications for the Ethereum Execution Layer. Github (https://github.com/ethereum/execution-specs) EELS is an implementation of the EVM in Python that has been optimised for readability. A great tool for EIP authors looking to prototype new ideas on the EVM, it is easy to understand as well as update with new features.

EVMMAX. Fast Modular Arithmetic in EVM
On the top of EVM Object Format we build an extension which allows contract developers to implement optimized advanced cryptography functions. This feature allows us to implement existing and future ECC precompiles counterparts directly in EVM. Adding new ECC functions (i.e. bls precompiles or functions based on a new, unknown yet, elliptic curve) to the protocol won't require introducing new precompiles. It can be achieved easier and without any risk for the consensus.

Fork-Choice enforced Inclusion Lists (FOCIL)
A direct consequence of centralized block production is a deterioration of Ethereum's censorship resistance properties. In this talk, we introduce FOCIL, a simple committee-based design improving upon previous inclusion list and co-created block mechanisms. We present the benefits of (1) relying on a committee to address issues related to bribing/extortion attacks, and (2) having attesters enforce the IL as part of the block validity condition to prevent IL equivocation.

Native Account Abstraction in Pectra, rollups and beyond: combining EOF, EIP-7702 and RIP-7560
Account Abstraction has rightfully become one of the most discussed topics in the Ethereum ecosystem. The upcoming Pectra upgrade is set to be the first one to improve EOAs by including EIP-7702. But can EIP-7702 alone achieve "Account Abstraction"? We will discuss the challenges and benefits of EIP-7702, and break down the team's vision for achieving "complete" Native Account Abstraction with RIP-7560/EIP-7701 and how it differs from ERC-4337 + EIP-7702.
