EIP-7906 PR: rename POST_TX to ASSERT
(lightclient). The reasoning: every EIP-8141 frame mode is one word describing what happens; POST_TX describes where the logic sits, while ASSERT describes what the frame intends to do.
The transaction assertion API converges: ASSERT and TXTRACE
EIP-7906 PR: remove TXDIFF
(lightclient), moving some of the lost functionality into TXTRACE. `contracts_deployed` becomes `codes_changed`, which can also support future opcodes like SETCODEFROM, and `nonces_changes` is added.

Magicians: ERC-8420 AA-compatible solver
15:23. Users submit an envelope carrying the wallet's signed transaction, it stays compatible with existing smart wallets, and it draws on ERC-7521.
Glamsterdam heads to Hoodi, and privacy tooling
EF Blog: Glamsterdam Hoodi testnet announcement
. Activation is at epoch 132,352, slot 4,235,264 (17:42:48 UTC on October 26), and Hoodi's gas limit rises to 200M at the same epoch. The headliners are ePBS (EIP-7732) and BALs (EIP-7928). On gas, EIP-8037 raises and separately meters the cost of creating state, and EIP-8038 updates state access costs. Contracts that rely on fixed gas stipends, hardcoded gas limits or assumptions about remaining gas may need changes.
