A place for talking about the Ethereum Virtual Machine on Farcaster.

Nothing beats when the EVM enters a new “weird era”

First: introduction of DELEGATECALL to replace CALLCODE

Then: CREATE2 (this was a huge game-changer & really kicked off my personal journey in understanding yhe EVM)

Now: AUTH & AUTHCALL — so much to be (re)built and reconsidered

And just wait until EOF 🤯

A doodler and computerer. I like permissive/permissionless open source, smart contracts, p2p systems, room-scale VR, and NixOS.

Currently: WhatsABI

Oh it’s massive, basically establishes ways to version the EVM by contract and have whole new semantics

What's your fav use case for EOF? My understanding is it helps simplify the transpiling from higher level languages, right? It wouldn't actually enable new use cases?

I do have one wacky optimization in mind… We don’t want to foil our chances of getting the change included though 🤫

Have you concocted the most insane way AUTH/AUTHCALL could be used yet? 

I recall HomeWork!
