1/ The Pectra upgrade is here.🛠️

- This is the most significant change since The Merge—impacting validator infra, staking economics, L2 costs, and wallet UX.

- Every builder needs to adapt. 🚀

let's see what's new 👇🏼

Solidity smart contract dev📜| Base maxi

3/ Staking infra gets a major boost:

-Validators consolidate for lower infra costs

-Smart contract exits enable automated slashing and rotation

-Compounding rewards without splitting across validator sets

4/ Rollups and app-specific chains benefit:

-Lower and more predictable DA costs

-Better coordination between execution & consensus layers

-Easier migration to blob-based storage

5/ EIP-7702 transforms wallet UX:

-Sponsored transactions and batching improve usability

-No need for bundlers or alt-mempools

-Apps can introduce abstraction without infra overhauls

6/ Rollup teams relying on calldata must move fast.

-Blobposting is now cheaper and scalable.

-Staying on calldata gets penalized—cost structures are changing.

7/ Validators gain programmable infra:

-Exit logic, reward routing, and duty assignment can now be coded

-AVS onboarding, uptime guarantees, and slashing logic move on-chain

-Validators shift from passive capital sinks to composable primitives

8/ AVS networks evolve:

-Pectra enables smart contract-driven validator coordination

-Automated validator selection, reward distribution, and slashing

-No need for off-chain committees or manual processes

9/
 EIP-6110 enhances the Beacon Chain, 

-streamlining validator deposits and 

-making staking onboarding more efficient.

10/ 
PeerDAS groundwork: 

Pectra sets the stage for modular DA improvements—critical for rollups and future scalability.

2/ EIP-2537 introduces efficient BLS12-381 signature verification.

This improves :

-zk verification speeds,

-lowers consensus costs, and

-enhances AVS coordination.
