DESCRIPTION:Developers build DeFi protocols\, DAOs\, and countless other ap
 plications on Ethereum every day using smart contract languages like Solid
 ity and Vyper. Yet beneath all of them sits the Ethereum Virtual Machine (
 EVM) — the execution engine that powers the entire ecosystem\, and still
  remains a black box to most developers building on it.\n\nThis talk opens
  that box from two perspectives.\n\nFrom the smart contract developer's an
 gle\, we'll walk through the EVM's architecture and core components — th
 e stack\, memory\, transient storage\, and more — and show why understan
 ding what happens beneath your Solidity code leads to better gas optimizat
 ion\, safer contracts\, and sharper debugging instincts. It's also key to 
 understanding how many smart contract hacks actually work.\n\nFrom the pro
 tocol developer's angle\, we'll go behind the scenes of how the EVM itself
  evolves: how a new feature is proposed\, how EIP specs are written\, how 
 the implementation comes together\, and how multi-client testing keeps con
 sensus intact. We'll give special attention to how gas costs are defined\,
  and the rationale behind the repricing EIPs landing in Ethereum's next ha
 rd fork\, Glamsterdam.
