The Ethereum developers have introduced an Ethereum Improvement Proposal, EIP-7732. This latest proposal promises to revolutionize the block validation process on the blockchain. This initiative aims to enhance the security and speed of the crypto network by separating the validation process into two distinct parts: consensus and execution.
The innovations proposed by Ethereum EIP-7732
Ethereum EIP-7732, supported by Vitalik Buterin, proposes the Enshrined Proposer-Builder Separation (EPBS). A method that divides the creation of crypto blocks between the consensus proposer and the execution proposer. The consensus proposer selects the execution proposer, who commits to producing a valid block containing essential information! Such as a payment or a block hash, for the proposer.
A group of validators, known as the Payload Timeliness Committee (PTC), ensures that the execution proposer submits the promised block within the allotted time. This separation aims to reduce the computational load on validators! Thus increasing the efficiency and speed of the crypto network.
Even faster crypto transactions!
EIP-7732 meets the growing demand for efficiency on the Ethereum blockchain. It follows Buterin’s desire to speed up crypto transaction confirmation times. Thanks to the revision of the transaction fees from EIP-1559 and stable block times after the merge (Merge), transaction confirmations on Ethereum are now reduced to between five and twenty seconds.
Although these speeds are comparable to those of credit card transactions, certain applications require significantly faster speeds. The impact of EIP-7732 on the market could be significant as it could strengthen Ethereum’s competitive position in the crypto market. The proposal requires a full network upgrade and thorough evaluation by the Ethereum community.
EIP-7732 is a major advancement for Ethereum. It could not only improve the security and efficiency of the network but also open up new possibilities for users and developers. With community approval, Ethereum could take another step towards a faster and more secure crypto ecosystem.
