The 171st Ethereum Core Developer Consensus Meeting: Devnet-9 release was postponed again
According to BlockBeats news, on October 2, Christine Kim, vice president of research at Galaxy, published a document summarizing the 171st Ethereum Core Developer Consensus Conference (ACDE). Developers discussed the progress of Dencun upgrade testing, EIP-4788 early audit results and the information in the EVM. Marking block root, Holesky testnet launch, EIP-7503, preliminary feedback on zero-knowledge wormholes, changing EIP-6780 and SELFDESTRUCT specifications only in the same transaction.
Regarding the Dencun test, the Devnet-9 release has been delayed again, with developers planning to launch Devnet-9 at the end of September or this week. The developer also stated that after the launch of Devnet-9, the 10th devnet needs to be launched for Dencun upgrade, and the life cycle of Devnet-10 will be relatively short.
Developers will also test the validator workflow to obtain MEV using MEV-Boost software on Devnet-9 and 10. Regarding EIP-4788, the developers stated that they have completed three audits conducted by Chainsecurity, Trail of Bits, and Dedaub.
One of the most important findings from the audit is that users can query smart contract addresses with a zero timestamp, even if no value is set for the zero timestamp. Before this ACDE meeting, the Holosky test network has also been launched.
The developers also discussed EIP-7503, which proposes a new privacy solution for Ethereum based on zero-knowledge cryptography technology that will provide users with more robust transactions than cryptocurrency mixers like Tornado Cash privacy guarantee.
It will also provide users with a way to prove that the funds in their accounts have not been obfuscated by the privacy protocols supported by EIP-7503, effectively allowing users to submit a "clearance of innocence" for their accounts for regulatory and compliance purposes.
Finally Guillaume Ballet from the Geth client team raised a small issue in the EIP 6780 specification. Ballet noted that the EIP specifies the behavior of SELFDESTRUCT in a post-Verkle environment.
