Ethereum core developers will decide this Thursday whether to include EIP-8141 in the Hegota upgrade
Ethereum Foundation researcher ladislaus.eth disclosed that the Ethereum core developer meeting (AllCoreDevs) plans to make a decision this Thursday on whether to include EIP-8141 in the Hegota upgrade.
The core of EIP-8141 is to decouple accounts from fixed signature schemes, providing a native path for migration to post-quantum secure signature schemes. ladislaus.eth pointed out that if the consensus layer (leanCL) already possesses post-quantum security, but user transactions on the execution layer still rely on ECDSA signatures that have quantum vulnerabilities, then the overall migration is not complete; both layers need to have post-quantum readiness.
In addition, EIP-8141 will also support account abstraction as a native feature of the protocol and support programmable Gas payments (including payments with ERC-20 tokens and transaction sponsorship). Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin added that EIP-8141 will also provide better native support for privacy protocols and draw a comparison with the general programmability of the EVM—this proposal will introduce programmability into the verification phase, which previously only hardcoded ECDSA.
