According to the minutes of the 184th Ethereum All-Core Developers Consensus Layer meeting, Glamsterdam Devnet 8 is tentatively scheduled to launch on August 11. It will operate as a named temporary public testnet, allowing external node operators and validators to participate. The final specifications are expected to be released on the launch day, with the exact timing depending on client coordination and specification finalization. The meeting also confirmed that the non-main proposal submission window for the Hegotá upgrade closed on August 6. EIP-8198 (proposing to reduce slot time from 12 seconds to approximately 10 seconds), EIP-8142, EIP-8359, and EIP-8363 are currently only in the "Proposed for Inclusion" (PFI) evaluation stage and have not yet been confirmed for inclusion in Hegotá. Among them, EIP-8363 proposes to gradually reduce validator rewards as the ETH staking rate increases, eventually lowering the consensus layer's net issuance to zero when the staking rate reaches 50%. However, this proposal has sparked controversy due to its late submission and potential impact on smaller validators. https://(wublock123.com)/news/ethereum-devnet-8-launch-aug-11-66142
