Glamsterdam devnet-7 is live. More progress on the road to testnet 🚢
On the CL side:
- EIP-7688 progressive containers
- Updated payload deadlines and builder lifecycle parameters
On the EL side:
- EIP-2780 and 8037 → state-dependent charges moved from intrinsic gas to ccount-creation and calldata-floor accounting
- EIP-7928 and 8038 → BAL and SSTORE access-ordering fixes
- EIP-8282 → finalized builder deposit and exit contracts, limits, fees, and disable controls
Onward.

13M ETH is already concentrated in just 16k validators, but only 1.8% of accumulating validators have upgraded to 0x02.
Let's consolidate our validators! Fewer validators means less consensus overhead and a clearer path toward much faster finality!

Glamsterdam devnet-6 is shipping. Tons of progress on the road to testnet.
- EIP-8282 brings ePBS builder execution requests, with two new system contracts:
On the EL side, the post-bal-devnet-7 work:
- New → EIP-2780, 8038 (repricing), 7997, 8246, 8070 (optional)
- Changed → urce-based refunds), 7928 (BAL×7702 warming stays status quo)
Onward 🚢

Excited about this. A stronger Ethereum is one where stewardship is distributed across more serious, independent, non-EF orgs!
Announcing Ethlabs: a non-profit R&D lab for Ethereum and ETH
Our mission is to make Ethereum the settlement layer of the global economy.
The internet became global because shared protocols created a common language between networks. Private systems remained useful, but bounded. Finance is approaching a similar moment. As value, assets, and markets become digital, the world needs shared settlement infrastructure.
Ethereum is uniquely positioned to become that shared base layer, the neutral foundation on which users, institutions, and agents can transact without intermediation.
What we believe:
• We believe credible neutrality matters. Ten years of uptime and the lowest counterparty risk. Ground that cannot be pulled away by any one country, institution, company, or person.
• We believe ETH matters. The most valuable, programmable store of value. A decade of broad distribution, deep liquidity in onchain markets, and maximally trustless asset on Ethereum.
• We believe DeFi matters. Markets, liquidity, credit, exchange, and coordination, open to anyone.
• We believe adoption matters. Principles do not change the world until people benefit from them.
We sit between two worlds: real usage from the builders at the frontier, and the protocol that has to support it. We work with users, applications, wallets, L2s, infrastructure teams, institutions, ETH holders, core devs and researchers, then turn what they actually need into protocol work, shared standards, infrastructure, and shipped products.
Ethlabs is independent but Ethereum is a shared project. We are one node in a much larger network of stewards. This is the multi-node future.
We have spent the better part of the past decade contributing to Ethereum core research and development.
We are opinionated and transparent. We move with urgency, learn in public, and course-correct when we’re wrong.
We are building a lean, talent-dense team for people who want to do the most important work of their careers: join@ethlabs.org
