• Highlights from the All Core Developers Execution (ACDE) Call #212
  • Client Implementation Updates, Fusaka Devnet 1 Scope, EIP-7825, EIP-7934, Review of Additional EIPs for Devnet 2 & Testnet Deployment Strategy.
• Vitalik Buterin Proposes Partially Stateless Nodes to Secure Ethereum's Decentralized Future
  • Vitalik Buterin has proposed “partially stateless nodes” to protect against censorship risks from centralized RPC providers. These nodes reduce the burden of running full nodes by storing only relevant state data, enabling users to access Ethereum trustlessly and privately as the network scales and storage demands grow.
