Ethereum

In the world of crypto, Ethereum is the source of innovation, where DeFi, NFTs, Layer 2, and numerous new technologies were created. One of its co-founders, Vitalik Buterin, is a key opinion leader in the crypto world. Ethereum launched a series of important upgrades to transition from proof-of-work (PoW) to proof-of-stake (PoS), which may help to break down the Blockchain Scalability Trilemma and makes Ethereum a “ultra-sound money”.

Exploring the EIP-7702 Proposal: Vitalik's Ultimate Solution for the Account Abstraction Dilemma?

Vitalik Buterin has proposed EIP-7702, which could be one of the most significant changes in Ethereum's history. EIP-7702 aims to improve account abstraction, allowing smart contracts to be used as accounts, thereby enhancing functionality and security. It is highly compatible with EIP-4337, which has been widely adopted on platforms like Polygon. EIP-7702 achieves the temporary delegation of EOAs (Externally Owned Accounts) to smart contracts by temporarily populating the contract code field of an EOA with smart contract code, without the need for a hard fork. This could transform how users interact with Web3 applications.

Ordinal Inscription Vs. NFTs: What’s the Difference

Ordinal Inscriptions differ significantly from NFTs. Although they are both tradable digital assets on the blockchain; their minting, storage, and operation underpins the major differences between them. While NFTs are minted and stored outside the Ethereum network, Ordinal Inscriptions are created and stored on the Bitcoin blockchain.

EIP-3074: Risks/Opportunities for Smart Account Adoption

EIP-3074 allows externally owned accounts (EOAs) to delegate their transaction capabilities to smart contracts, enhancing features like transaction sponsorship and batch processing. As a short-term fix, it aims to improve the user experience of EOAs to achieve a complete transition to smart accounts. This ensures that legacy users are not left behind, while also making sure they do not hinder AA's efforts.

Why Has the Privacy Protocol Railgun Gained Favor with Vitalik?

Railgun is a privacy system built directly for blockchain, currently supporting Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, and Arbitrum. It primarily utilizes zero-knowledge proofs to anonymize transactions in smart contracts and DeFi applications. Railgun provides only on-chain smart contract logic, thus eliminating the need for L2 validators and vulnerable cross-chain bridges to achieve privacy. The article discusses the Railgun privacy system’s mechanisms, tokens, governance, rewards, and the V3 upgrade, offering comprehensive information to readers.

Artela, Unleashing the Power of Parallel EVM

At its core, the concept of parallel EVM revolves around optimizing the execution process of transaction states, with the ambitious goal of achieving a staggering 10,000 transactions per second (TPS). The underlying technology behind this impressive feat lies in the realm of specialized databases, developer friendliness, delayed consensus execution, and superscalar pipeline techniques, all working in harmony to enable parallel processing of large-scale transactions. This approach shares fundamental similarities with Artela's concept of elastic computing and asynchronous I/O operations.
