Buterin says blockchains are moving from re-execution to proof-based computation
- —Buterin: the era where everyone repeats everything is coming to an end
- —Recursive STARKs and EIP-8288 aggregate proofs and signatures at the mempool level
- —EIP-8141 splits transactions into actions for parallel processing
- —FOCIL aims to reduce reliance on a single block builder and improve censorship resistance
Why it matters: Shifting Ethereum's architecture from re-execution to proofs could speed up the network and cut the cost of private and post-quantum transactions.
