RIP-7212 aims to improve the interoperability of rollups with mainstream tech.<\/p>\n
The Polygon PoS sidechain executed its Napoli hard fork, becoming the first network to support RIP-7212.<\/p>\n
Napoli<\/a>\u00a0introduced support for three\u00a0major upgrades<\/a>\u00a0included in Ethereum\u2019s recent Dencun hard fork, spanning EIP-1153: Transient Storage, EIP-6780: SELFDESTRUCT, and EIP-5656: memory copying instruction.<\/p>\n EIP-1153 improves the efficiency of block space usage, while EIP-6780 limits the scope of the selfdestruct opcode, and EIP-5656 reduces the technical overhead associated with copying memory.<\/p>\n Polygon is also set to introduce support for\u00a0EIP-4844<\/a>, the primary fee-reducing upgrade included in Dencun, as part of its Feijoa upgrade in May.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Polygon\u00a0emphasized<\/a>\u00a0Napoli\u2019s inclusion of the\u00a0RIP-7212 upgrade<\/a>, which was incubated by RollCall, a recently formed collective of Layer 2 teams.<\/p>\n RIP-7212 introduced precompile support for the secp256r1 curve \u2014 an elliptic curve commonly used for digital signatures across the internet. The upgrade was\u00a0finalized<\/a>\u00a0six weeks ago, with developers describing its adoption as paving the way for greater interoperability with mainstream tech and devices.<\/p>\n \u201cAll of tech uses [secp256r1], so having a precompile for it would allow things like storing keys in iPhone secure enclaves,\u201d\u00a0tweeted<\/a>\u00a0Tim Beiko of the Ethereum Foundation.<\/p>\n David Silverman, the VP of product at Polygon Labs, told The Defiant that RIP-7212 provides \u201ca new native account abstraction method for pass keys, DNS, verification, and more.\u201d<\/p>\nRIP-7212 paves the way for mainstream interoperability<\/h2>\n
