The EF blog and ethPandaOps announced Platåberget, a community-facing Glamsterdam testnet meant to run for months, with Glamsterdam activating on it on August 20; the blog warns that wallets, indexers and gas estimators relying on a hardcapped maximum gas limit will break. On wallet infrastructure, leekt submitted a wallet-to-paymaster web service standard for frame transactions and `eth_estimateFrameTransactionGas`. EF Protocol Architecture published its Hegotá view: FOCIL is the right headliner and frame transactions should join it.
(leekt), submitted. It defines a wallet-to-paymaster web service flow for EIP-8141 frame transactions: `pm_getFramePaymasterStubData` returns gas-safe, paymaster-controlled frame and signature stubs, the wallet assembles the complete unsigned FrameTx and estimates it with the EIP-8141 estimation RPC.
(leekt), submitted. It defines `eth_estimateFrameTransactionGas` directly in EIP-8141 because each frame needs independent execution and state gas limits; `null` limits are estimation targets and non-null limits are caller-supplied caps, the call returns intrinsic gas plus per-frame limits, and it requires a confirmation execution with exactly the returned limits.
EthPandaOps: Platåberget is our Glamsterdam-focused testnet, 19:47. Per the blog, unlike short-lived devnets it is meant to run for a few months; the validator set is small but publicly joinable, with genesis bootstrapped from public deposits; the Glamsterdam fork on the testnet is scheduled for August 20; and the gas repricings touch every wallet, indexer and gas estimator, so tools that rely on a hardcapped maximum gas limit will break.
