EF focuses on three areas:
Scaling
• L1 + blob object scaling
• Increasing the gas limit to 100 million and higher
• Further increasing the throughput of blob objects
• Implementing ePBS (EIP-7732), developing the zkEVM attester client
• State scaling, transition to a stateless architecture
Improving user experience
• Native account abstraction + compatibility between L2s
• Development of EIP-7701 and EIP-8141 (Frame Transactions)
• Smart accounts as a standard without bundlers and unnecessary fees
• Preparation for post-quantum cryptography
• Faster transaction confirmations in L1 and faster transactions in L2
Strengthening L1
• Security and post-quantum resistance
• Censorship protection (FOCIL, EIP-7805)
• Network resilience, testing, and an accelerated update cycle
