EIP-8141 received a PR raising MAX_VERIFY_GAS from 100k to 300k, based on Nethermind's DoS benchmark and measured gas for privacy pools and post-quantum signatures. Another PR clarifies that blob fees can lower the GASPRICE of a frame transaction. Marius and Ethlabs gave Glamsterdam updates: the goal is to have audit reports before ACDT on 11-16, and neither spec changes nor Hoodi have been decided. Versioned Opcodes became EIP-8488 and got a discussion thread. ETHBEAT launched its CROPS guide.
Opened at 08:58. The reasoning: 100k leaves out validation that real apps need. A Groth16 privacy pool spends 236,285 gas in its VERIFY frame (216,463 of it on the proof check), with Nethermind and ethrex agreeing to the gas unit; post-quantum signatures cost 94k to 276k. The benchmark (ethresear.ch 26224) measured caps from 100k to 500k: at equal failing gas per second the harm to a node is the same at every cap, and the cap only scales how much one peer can push. At about 100 failing transactions per second per peer, 300k keeps the added block-building delay within 25ms on local builder hardware. Nethermind already defaults to 300k for its own mempool. The PR is independent of #12301 (whether the value is a floor or a maximum).

Opened at 07:45. The fee budget section says GASPRICE excludes blob fees, which reads as if blob fees never affect it. In fact, when `max_fee` does not cover the full tip, `max_priority_fee` is what is left after `required_max_fee`, and `required_max_fee` includes `blob_gas * blob_base_fee`, so a higher blob base fee lowers GASPRICE for the same transaction. This was found while checking Nethermind's frame tx `effectiveGasPrice` against the formula.
14:10. The goal is to have audit reports before ACDT on 11-16; nothing has been decided on spec changes or Hoodi, and input is still welcome. ACDT on 11-16 covers the findings with open Q&A, and app developers are welcome.
