Ethereum

<p class="is-style-lead">Co-founder of the Ethereum (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/Ethereum/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">ETH</a>) blockchain Vitalik Buterin expresses hope for the appearance of Verkle trees in the blockchain network.</p> 
<p>In his opinion, the integration of the data structure will lead to a significant improvement in the disk space used by betting nodes. </p> 
<p>According to information provided by the Ethereum co-creator, Verkle trees will enable the creation of many new types of functionality in addition to stateless clients, saving a significant amount of storage space required to run a node.</p>

   <p lang="en" dir="ltr">I'm really looking forward to Verkle trees. They will enable stateless validator clients, which can allow staking nodes to run with near-zero hard disk space and sync nearly instantly – far better solo staking UX. Also good for user-facing light clients.<a href="https://t.co/Bg2KXH07Id" target="_blank">https://t.co/Bg2KXH07Id</a></p>— vitalik.eth (@VitalikButerin) <a href="https://twitter.com/VitalikButerin/status/1759365739671412841?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">February 18, 2024</a>

<p>The digital asset community on X has been eagerly awaiting the integration of Verkle trees into Ethereum, with one user stating that the prospect of near-zero burdensome drive space requirements and near-instant synchronization is a game-changer.</p>

<p>An <a href="https://crypto.news/tag/Ethereum/">Ethereum</a> update called the Dencun Update is expected. The developers said the update will not happen this year as more work needs to be done. For most users, Dencun is associated primarily with Ethereum Improvement Proposals (<a href="https://crypto.news/tag/EIP/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">EIP</a>) 4844 or the so-called proto-danksharding. However, in addition to it, the upgrade includes the implementation of seven more EIPs, affecting particular aspects of the blockchain.</p>
