upgrade specification

1. "Shanghai" upgrade

This time, the implementation layer changes that include the "Shanghai" upgrade mainly include:

• EIP-3651 ：Warm COINBASE

• EIP-3855: PUSH 0 instruction

• EIP-3860: Throttling and metering initialization code

• EIP-4895: Beacon chain push withdrawal operations

• EIP-6049: Deprecate SELFDESTRUCT

It should be noted that EIP-6049 is just a deprecation warning, the client team expects SELFDESTRUCT semantics to change in future network upgrades, but the behavior of the opcode remains unchanged in the Shanghai upgrade.

2. Capella upgrade

The changes to the consensus layer in the Capella upgrade are specified in the Ethereum v1.3.0-rc.5 specification. At a high level, this upgrade will introduce:

• Full and partial withdrawals by validators

• BLSToExecutionChange message that allows validators to update it to ETH 1 with BLS_WITHDRAWAL_PREFIX _ADDRESS_WITHDRAWAL_PREFIX which is a prerequisite for withdrawals

FAQ

1. As an Ethereum user or ETH holder, do I need to do anything?

In short, no.

If you use an exchange, digital wallet, or hardware wallet, you don't need to take any action unless your exchange or wallet provider tells you to take additional steps.

If you run your own Ethereum node, see the next question.

2. As a non-staking node operator, what do I need to do?

For compatibility with mainnet upgrades, please update your nodes to the Ethereum client versions listed in the table above.

3. As a staker, what do I need to do?

For compatibility with mainnet upgrades, please update your nodes to the Ethereum client versions listed in the table above. Make sure your beacon nodes and validator clients are both updated!

It is also recommended that you readWithdrawal FAQ。

4. What happens if I am a staker or node operator but do not participate in this upgrade?

If you are using an Ethereum client that has not been updated to the latest version (listed above), your client will sync to the pre-forked blockchain once the upgrade occurs.

With the old rules, you would be stuck on an incompatible chain and would not be able to send Ether or operate on a post-Shapella Ethereum network.

5. What should I do as an application or tool developer?

Shapella will not introduce breaking changes to smart contracts, application and tool developers should review the upgrade changes to ensure that any relevant upgrades and fixes have been completed, or understand how to use newly introduced functions.
