EIP-8268

Storage Roots in Block Access Lists

Status history

Draft21 May 2026

Abstract

This EIP extends EIP-7928 by attaching the post-block storage trie root to every Block Access List (BAL) entry that records state modifications. Partially stateful nodes can then verify the post-block state root without holding the full storage tries of modified accounts.
