<aside> ☝ Data Availability Sampling (DAS) is a key primitive to scaling blob space for L2s on Ethereum. The first step is PeerDAS – scheduled to ship in the Fusaka hard fork. The focus of this site for now is on PeerDAS, but will expand over time.

Devnet / DevOps / Testing Updates


Team Link Discussion (key points highlighted)
ethPandaOps link peerdas-devnet-5 status:
• Gradually increasing malicious peers (withholding columns or delaying publication)
• Currently ~30% of network acting malicious
• Network composition: 60% full nodes, 40% super nodes
• Waiting for Prism fix to be deployed before increasing malicious nodes further
ethPandaOps link peerdas-devnet-6 status:
• Target timeline: approximately two weeks

• Validator custody not required for initial launch but is a priority. • Client teams should focus on self-proof computation first, then validator custody • Validator custody can be deployed later as it's backward compatible | | ethPandaOps | | Testing Tools Updates: • Spammoor: tx format for tx submitter does not change, so no change required • P2p tester: Sam is still working on its - won’t be ready in the next few weeks • Checkpointz: waiting for spec to finalise. For now its possible to checkpoint sync via beacon nodes | | Sunnyside | link | Max Blobs Testing: • Tried different CL client combinations, see above link for more details • Some EL clients are hitting some tx pool limits • Will publish another report in a couple of hours after the call | | Sunnyside | link | Updated Report (post-Meeting) |
