Ethereum developers submit EIP-8453 draft to decouple consensus votes
- —EIP-8453 splits block-selection votes from finalization votes
- —Goals: groundwork for post-quantum transition, fork-choice security, faster finality
- —Ethereum finality currently takes 13–19 minutes
- —Author Ben Edgington says many details remain undecided
Why it matters: Decoupling the votes could speed up finality and ease a future post-quantum migration, though deployment is still far off.
