Wiki - Protocol Design #154

Closed taxmeifyoucan closed 4 months ago

taxmeifyoucan commented 6 months ago

The page should cover design principles and rationale of the Ethereum protocol, updating to reflect the current zeitgeists and architecture evolution.

Protocol Design

This page is under placeholder since the wiki started https://github.com/eth-protocol-fellows/protocol-studies/blob/main/docs/wiki/protocol/design-rationale.md

It would be great to fill it because there is no up to date document explaining why Ethereum looks the way it does. The placeholder page includes a doc from old Eth builders wiki which could be revived. The core tenets are similar but lot of things can be updated, V's blog posts like the one I linked are a great resource. There are projects like Merge Manual or recent Dencun Diaries which can also inspire the updated version. I partially covered it in my talk on Week 1.

Proposed content

I'm assuming here that important updates will also contribute to the protocol design
