BlockBeats news, on August 14, according to CoinDesk, the Ethereum "EVM Object Format (EOF)" improvement proposal has been included in the Pectra hard fork, which is expected to be executed later this year or early next year. The EOF proposal will make a series of smaller changes to upgrade the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). EOF will make smart contracts more developer-friendly, especially for those who use Solidity or Vyper programming languages to build decentralized applications, but may break existing smart contracts. Developers have added a new version that allows DApp builders to choose which version of EVM to use when deploying code.
Parithosh Jayanthi, a core developer at the Ethereum Foundation, said that EOF will be the first major change related to EVM in many years. It lays the foundation for future upgrades of EVM and demonstrates the intention to continue to improve EVM.
