EIP-8363 has been considered for removal from the Ethereum Hegota upgrade review

Odaily News On August 6, at the "All Core Devs consensus call" held by the Ethereum community (a biweekly meeting to discuss consensus layer changes), Jerome introduced EIP-8363, a proposal aimed at introducing a decreasing burn mechanism for Ethereum. Once the staking ratio exceeds 50%, the staking incentive for validators would drop to zero.

However, other participants expressed concerns about the potential negative impact on small validator nodes and the risk of centralization, and also questioned the actual returns for stakers and the complexity of implementation. As a result, the proposal was ultimately recommended for removal from consideration for inclusion in the Hegota upgrade. Jerome and the other authors of the proposal were also advised to respond to all comments on the EIP thread on the Eth Magicians forum.

It is reported that EIP-8363 was submitted as a draft on August 4, in an attempt to meet the non-core EIP submission window for the Hegota upgrade (deadline August 6), but it triggered extensive controversy within the community regarding timing, impact on staking/DeFi, and centralization risks. Executives from Ethereum ecosystem companies, including SharpLink CEO Joseph Chalom, Aave founder Stani Kulechov, and Ether.fi founder Mike Silagadze, all publicly opposed the proposal.
