Recording: Breakout room #5

Summary

Questions :

Should the legacy transactions be wrapped? 

• EIP-2972: Wrapped Legacy Transactions is mostly supported, Axic is not 100% sure.

How do we format the new tx type? Is now the right time to introduce the SSZ?

• Enough support / not strong opposition to using SSZ from the people who attended the breakout room meeting.
• People are open to hearing concerns with using SSZ.

Next steps

Piper Merriam will ping each client on Discord (async) to check if they are willing to use SSZ implementation from Eth2 clients or are feel a need for a massive amount of testing on their own.

• Geth - agrees
• Besu team seems to be fine with using SSZ
• OpenEthereum thinks it should be okay but will confirm async
• Trinity - supporting the proposal

To be discussed

• Potential delays if SSZ is chosen to move ahead with figuring out whether or not Ethereum client teams are okay with it and some other details.
