Appoint Marius van der Wijden as co-leader of the L1 scale expansion project with Ansgar Dietrichs and Tim Beiko; 2. After Berlinterop, the main network Gas limit increased to 45 million, which is the first step towards 100 million Gas and higher; 3. All major execution layer clients have deployed the pre-merge historical data expiration function, which greatly reduces node disk usage; 4. Block-level access lists (BALs) are being considered as headline candidates for the Glamsterdam upgrade; 5. Computation and state benchmarking work is underway to better manage EVM resource pricing and performance bottlenecks; 6. With the development of the ZK-based prover client prototype, the path to zkEVM real-time proof is becoming more specific; 7.
