VitalikButerin proposed hyper-scaling state by creating new forms of state. jflo and coauthors proposed the LUCID encrypted mempool as a Hegotá headliner: FOCIL cannot protect MEV exposed transactions, and LUCID fills that gap. ACDC #174 saw FOCIL as the likely consensus headliner, to be chosen at the next ACDC. nerolation submitted raising the EIP-7976 calldata floor to 64/64.

Transaction privacy: the LUCID encrypted mempool

ethresear.ch: LUCID, encrypted mempool with distributed payload propagation

Magicians: Hegotá headliner LUCID encrypted mempool (jflo, authors Anders Elowsson, Julian Ma, Justin Florentine), 09:37: FOCIL lets includers propagate lists of transactions that must land next slot for censorship resistance, but cannot protect transactions open to MEV extraction; companion post ethresear.ch: LUCID, encrypted mempool with distributed payload propagation, 08:10.

Calls: ACDC #174

ACDC #174

21:00, per Ethereal news #10: Hegotá consensus headliner candidates are FOCIL (EIP-7805) and partial reconstruction and 2D PeerDAS, with strong client support for FOCIL and a pick at the next ACDC; EIP-8136 cell level deltas are backwards compatible and ship behind a feature flag without an upgrade.
