Two account and privacy EIPs wrote their system contract addresses into the spec: EIP-8250's `NONCE_MANAGER` is pinned to `0x...8250` and EIP-8272's `RECENT_ROOT_ADDRESS` to `0x...8272`, so devnets can interoperate by reading the spec. Marchhill submitted EIP-8361 transaction validity proofs, which use proofs to raise the public mempool's ceiling on validation work for frame transactions. In the evening ACDT #90 discussed Glamsterdam repricing, with the anchor lowered from 100 to 75 Mgas/s.

System contract addresses for keyed nonces and recent roots

EIP-8250: pin NONCE_MANAGER to 0x...8250

(AnkushinDaniil), merged. The PR explains that `NONCE_MANAGER`'s address determines the storage slots keyed nonces live in, so two clients that pick different values do not share a chain; the address was `0xTBD` while the contract code was already pinned. Both known implementations independently chose the address equal to the EIP number, matching the `EXPIRY_VERIFIER = 0x...8141` convention in EIP-8141.

Using proofs to extend the mempool budget for frame transactions

EIP-8361: transaction validity proofs

(Marchhill), submitted. Per the PR, proofs of EIP-8141 validation prefixes raise the public mempool's validation-work ceiling and extend FOCIL eligibility without changing transaction execution or gas charges. It includes recursive batching, restricted fee-bump reuse, bounded certificate retrieval and one authenticated certificate per IL, and targets local consumer proving and future proof-verifying nodes.
