Ambitious plans for an accelerated upgrade of the Ethereum network are under serious question as key developers clash over key changes to the blockchain's technical architecture that could have a major impact on the billion-dollar ecosystem.
The dispute centers around how to implement EVM Object Format (EOF), a container format that works by improving the separation of code and data in
#Ethereum smart contracts.
EOF is an EVM bytecode. which works by checking the security of the code in advance rather than at runtime. Bytecodes are low-level instructions that can be understood and processed by the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) The intended effect of
EOF is to allow applications to run faster and cheaper on the network and prevent certain types of
February 13 during the ACDE (All
#Core Developers Execution Call) the Geth team supporting Lightclient, the most widely used client software in ethereum, was notified that the preparation and split occurred when the Geth team supporting Fusaka's most widely used client software, Lightclient, spoke out against including EOF in Fusaka, despite being several months ahead of the preparation and testing schedule
We completely disagree that EOF should be sent to mainnet,
wrote the Geth team in a Zoom chat comment, indicating that their opinion is leaning toward eliminating EOF from the Fusaka update altogether.
Vitalik Buterin, co-founder of Ethereum, gave the
#blockchain his final thoughts on the future on Friday, touching on an issue he rarely discusses. A layer 2 network built on top of Ethereum's core network currently dominates the blockchain thanks to low gas costs and fast transactions. However, analysts predict that the proliferation of the L2 network could come at the expense of Ethereum.
However, this opinion is not a collective consensus. Geth developer Marius van der Weyden said that the Geth team is almost
