Call summary

Targets
  • Next execution witness spec release based on Glamsterdam devnet-5 or devnet-6 - 00:12:50
  • Blocking Blobs DevNet (ethrex + Lighthouse prototype) — timeline TBD, targeted as soon as spec issues resolved - 01:06:36
Decisions
  • EIP-8025 (Optional ZK Proofs for Hegota) formally entered into the Hegota proposal process; PFI for Hegota - 00:07:01
Highlights
  • Eip Proposals Hegota:
    • ·EIP-8025 (Optional ZK Proofs) formally proposed for Hegota by Ignacio and Francesco; YouTube and slides linked - 00:06:23
  • Evm Formal Verification:
    • ·EVMASM (EVM in Lean4 assembly): 110 opcodes formally proved; STF modeling in progress (accounts, storage, EIP-1559 tx, call frames); targeting ZISK emulator for full ELF extraction; round-trip RISC-V tests in CI - 00:57:25
  • Security And Compliance:
    • ·Blog post published on SP1 formal verification effort: 11 base RV64IM instructions lack compliance coverage; RISC-V spec compliance now fully met by LambdaVM; ZISK near-compliant (fence edge case); OpenVM compliant release imminent - 00:43:33
    • ·Ignacio found two security bugs while auditing codebases: soundness bug in ZISK (fixed in v0.18), and potential OOM critical bug in libSSE from lambdaclass - 00:15:44
  • Testing And Infrastructure:
    • ·Execution witness spec: releases 040+ include schema ID prefix, enriched chain config, and properly filled public key hints; Hive dashboard now running execution witness compliance tests; only ethrex integrated so far - 00:08:39
    • ·EF proving cluster live; RISC-V distributed prover benchmark tools set up; initial mainnet and EST block benchmarks running; concrete numbers deferred to next call - 00:40:41
    • ·Blocking Blobs (EIP-8025-adjacent): prototype underway in ethrex and Lighthouse by Peter (Scroll); spec issues found, draft PR submitted; DevNet end-to-end flow targeted; ethrex team (Ivan) also planning near-term contribution - 01:04:19
  • Protocol Spec And Standards:
    • ·zkEVM guest API: 7 standards accepted; static library/linker script standard moving to merge (ZISK agreed); 3 new drafts open for review: ELF loading, accelerated memory ops (memcpy/memmove/memset/memcmp), and write_log diagnostic - 00:22:54
    • ·Francesco: block IR (ELIR) proposed as intermediate representation of EL host behaviors to aid formal verification; presented to FV group - 00:34:04
    • ·Recursive proof scheme proposed for weak subjectivity sync: reduces proof download from ~54 GB to K proofs for head block; PR open for review - 00:34:08
Action Items
  • All zkEVM teams - Review three open zkEVM guest API standard PRs: ELF loading, accelerated memory ops, write_log - 00:23:14
  • EL client teams - Integrate engine_newPayloadWithWitness v5 on an official EL repo branch to join Hive execution witness dashboard - 00:13:55
  • CL client teams and zkEVM contributors - Review recursive proof / weak subjectivity sync PR and write-up; provide feedback - 00:35:08
