Light Client Community Building

Community and consensus building around a vision for eth2 light clients is our top priority

  • Create a new PR on the eth2 spec repo
  • Cayman will write proposal for our vision for LCs and submit for community review
  • Some in the community have suggested a separate node to serve light clients, something to think about further
    • Step 1 ideate on this
    • Step 2 build out some code and see what sticks
    • Step 3 look at incentives
  • Open question: assuming Discv5 can be made light client ready, what records in ENR need to be added?

LC Implementation

Improving the prototype is the second priority

  • add ability to sync to the head of the chain rather than last finalized block
  • look into different networking possibilities such as libp2p for req/res
  • look into peer discovery using web sockets as transport

LC Demo

  • Add link to our LC Discord channel on the demo UI
  • Merge PR for DOS protection
