📦 Thread 4 — bigger contracts, same address everywhere.

Thread 3: native ETH finally logs.
Today: deploy larger bytecode + rely on Nick's CREATE2 factory.

Status quo (EIP-7732 / Glamsterdam CL):

Builders stake and exit through validator-style flows.
Withdrawal credentials, voluntary exits, BLS hot keys.

Works — but it blurs two different actors on one bus.

Amsterdam (EIP-8282):

Two new EIP-7685 request types on the EL:
• type 0x03 — BuilderDeposit
• type 0x04 — BuilderExit

Dedicated predeploys. Same end-of-block system-call pattern as EIP-7002.

eips.ethereum.org EIP-8282: Builder Execution Requests Predeploy builder deposit and exit request contracts for EIP-7732 builders on the EIP-7685 request bus

EthereumJS @EFJavaScript Sep 7

The contracts (Glamsterdam-devnet v7 mined):

Deposit: 0x0000bFF4…8282
Exit: 0x000064D6…8282

Builders register + top up via deposit calldata (184 bytes).
Exit is authorized by execution_address — not the BLS bid key.

In @ethereumjs/vm:

runBlock() on Hardfork.Amsterdam already calls accumulateRequests().

Builder requests append after deposit / withdrawal / consolidation.

Read result.requests + result.requestsHash — same Prague+ pipeline, two new types.

Gotcha #1 — validate vs build:

Validating: missing contracts → invalid block.
Building (generate: true): missing/failing call → empty request.

Local demos can seed STOP bytecode; devnets ship full contract code.

Gotcha #2 — EthereumJS is execution-layer:

We accumulate EL requests + hash them.
ePBS / builder consensus rules live on the CL side.

Amsterdam preview — not production.
