The 171st Ethereum consensus layer core developer meeting confirmed that the Glamsterdam upgrade will retain the trust payment feature and remove FOCIL

According to Christine Kim's summary of the 171st Ethereum Consensus Layer Core Developers Meeting (ACDC), the main topics discussed in this meeting included: retaining trustless payments as a component of the embedded proposer-builder separation (ePBS) in the Glamsterdam upgrade, while formally removing the Fork Choice Mandatory Inclusion List (FOCIL) feature. Additionally, the Fusaka upgrade successfully launched on the mainnet on December 3, and the subsequent blob parameter hard fork was smoothly activated on December 9, with the network operating stably.

The meeting also discussed proposals such as EIP 7688, 8061, and 8080, and plans to start planning the Heka upgrade in January next year, while considering replacing its star names with those that meet the International Astronomical Union standards.
