[mkalinin]

We'd like to discuss a couple of questions:

• Block capacity and compression. We might need to increase max attestations per block. In that case domain specific compression could reduce size amplification. Detailed analysis and suggested solution can be found here.

• BFT vs scalability in p2p network. The more scalable p2p network is the less BFT property it has. We suggest to discuss this in the context of attestations and blocks dissemination. As network might become a bottleneck of the system. Some thoughts and basic analysis could be read in this draft.

Are there any VDF updates?
