Shortening the Ethereum L1 slot time from 12 to 6 seconds has benefits across the stack: * Better UX * More value for users, with lower fees on DEXes * A better confirmation engine for interop protocols * More! We make the case for its headliner consideration in Glamsterdam.
The proposal follows EIP-7782, authored by @ben_a_adams and @dankrad Find the Glamsterdam proposal here:
There are multiple slot restructuring proposals already made for Glamsterdam (EIPs 7732 and 7886), focused more on scaling We want to use our Glamsterdam proposal as a place to highlight the value of shorter slot times, and progress the conversation towards their implementation
@locky_feeney @dankrad I also think that lower slot times make preconfs better, as they become less load-bearing and thus their economics/trust assumptions are smoother (relates to the "short slot times make big things smaller" argument)
