One of the major updates to Ethereum, the Pectra upgrade will make changes to gas fees, validator rights, and more

This week, Ethereum's core developers decided to split the network's next major upgrade, Pectra, into at least two parts, with the first update due around February 2025. At present, gas fees on Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, Optimism, and other second-layer networks must be paid in ETH regardless of the token being transferred. A proposal included in the first part of Pectra, EIP-7702, would effectively end this requirement, allowing users to use a wider range of tokens for other purposes.

MultiversX core developers: L1 should be extended, and the benefits of extending the base layer are significant

Robert Sasu, core developer of MultiversX, in reply to Vitalik's comment on "Encryption enters early stages in terms of L2 cost reduction, ZK-SNARKS, account abstraction", stated that on a truly decentralized network, a centralized sorter can actually be cheap. Rollups based networks are great, like Taiko, but right now that's just a handful. Hopefully more people migrate to Rollups. I think not only should L1 be scaled, this will help eliminate all unwanted L2, the benefits of scaling the base ...

Luke Dashjr: Bitcoin community is not active enough on updating spam filters

Bitcoin Core developer Luke Dashjr wrote on X: "Seven years ago today, the Bitcoin community launched Segwit, even though Bitcoin Core refused to allow anyone other than miners to make decisions. Today, we encountered a similar situation when updating our spam filters. Sadly, the community was largely too complacent - or brainwashed - to take action. Bitcoin doesn't blindly trust a centralized maintenance team - fiat currencies are like...
