According to Christine Kim's summary of the 160th Ethereum Executive Core Developers Meeting (ACDE), this meeting mainly discussed what code changes need to be included in the next Cancun upgrade. In addition to the protagonist of this upgrade, EIP-4844 (reducing L2 fees), developers also agreed to include the following EIP-6780, EIP-6475, and EIP-1153 in the upgrade. In addition, some EIPs proposals have not yet been officially accepted for inclusion in the upgrade (EIP-6913, 6493, 4788, 2537, 5656) and some have been determined not to be considered for inclusion in this upgrade (Big EOF and EVMMAX).

It is reported that EIP-6780 proposes to modify the function of the SELFDESTRUCT opcode, mainly to prepare for the future application of Verkle trees; EIP-6475 proposes to introduce a new simple serialization type for optional values ​​to provide better readability and compact serialization; EIP-1153 proposes to introduce a transient storage opcode.

In addition, the next meeting agenda will be about the progress of EIP-4844. EIP-4844 aims to enable temporary storage and retrieval of off-chain data through Ethereum nodes to meet the data and storage needs of blockchain applications. If successfully activated, EIP-4844 is expected to reduce the transaction costs of layer 2 rollup solutions (including Optimism and Arbitrum).
