According to Odaily Planet Daily, the Taiko team is working on upgrading the Taiko-based rollup protocol to the new version 1.9.0 and preparing for Ontake (the first Taiko BCR protocol fork).
Ontake brings the following features to Taiko L2:
- Enhanced L2 EIP-1559: Base fees are adjustable on L1, and ultimately all relevant parameters will be managed by L1’s DAO.
- Preliminary support for transaction reconfirmation: block proposers can deterministically build multiple blocks without first submitting old blocks to L1.
- Batch support: Blocks can be proposed and attested as a batch, opening the door to attestation aggregation which will further reduce gas costs.
- Calldata of contract proposer: Proposer can use Calldata without signature verification. This means that when using Calldata to obtain data availability, the proposer can be either a contract or an EOA.
