However, when `Constantinople` is later activated, EIP-1283 should be _disabled_. + +## References + +The list above includes the EIPs that had to be removed from Constantinople due to a [potential reentrancy attack vector](https://medium.com/chainsecurity/constantinople-enables-new-reentrancy-attack-ace4088297d9).
