Client Team Updates

Comment

EL

• Nethermind:
  Met the Shutter guys
  There were some questions and answers
  Asked for priorities
• Cancun
  We want EIP-4844 as soon as possible
• Shutter
• Erigon:
  No updates
• Geth:
  Got some Chiado data but it was missing the code, so waiting for a new dump
  Requesting more details about the system address being or not being in the state
  Guillaume will contact Lukasz on Telegram
  EIP-158 needs to be disabled for system transactions

Chain Infra

• Gateway
  No updates

Mainnet

Deposit UI somewhat fixed
The previous deposits cache is now kept up to date on every build
But we’re still getting RPC issues a lot of the times, making deposits quite painful
The RPC error wa actually fixed by Nethermind, but not released
There was a custom release for Gateway
Auto claim
Some sample contracts were written but there’s nothing concrete

Dencun

We should start launching devnets
There will be some differences for shadow forks as well
We need a copy of the deposit / withdrawals contract, so that the shadow forked network doesn’t have all validators deposited
We just have to deploy the deposit contract on Gnosis mainnet
Will require some changes in Nethermind and Erigon to support deposit contract swaps

Hive Tests

No updates

Research

• Big blocks experiment
  What size should we allocate to 4844? Just parameter changes
• Cancun: there are definitely some differences
• 4844 requires eth/68, but we don’t have that because we don’t have snap sync
• Nethermind has a client for snap sync but doesn’t serve that data
• Erigon also doesn’t serve the data
• A clean solution might be to introduce a new way to sync data?
• System transaction differences between Gnosis and mainnet for 4337
• Erigon would prefer to do all the system transactions the same way for Gnosis, so use the current concept for Gnosis and a different one for Ethereum
• There are some downsides
• Hive tests will have to be different
• Lion: why not keep the same code as for Ethereum?
  We already have hacks for AuRa, and we would have to add hacks to the new system transaction way as well

Next week DappCon
