here's the latest updates from yesterday's #ethereum dev call.

the addition of EIP-8282 this week was an important decision, as this may impact #glamsterdam scope and timeline.

all eyes are on the launch of glamsterdam-devnet-6, which will include EIP 8282, and the testing of this new feature.

[Christine D. Kim @christine_dkim]

devs are still divided on how much delay the new EIP will cause the upgrade, some say 3 weeks, other say 3 months. devs are also uncertain on whether this will warrant splitting the upgrade in two, EL first, then CL.

The debate on Bitcoin's quantum security continues, and at the center of this discussion is a proposal that would introduce a new address type, P2MR, to help secure user coins.

Let's get into it.

(As an aside, I really am so excited by the idea of a #Bitcoin LLM. We should make one for #Ethereum too. This could be the breakthrough decentralized protocols need to break through governance gridlocks!)
