apriori(@apriori0x):Ethereum cannot shorten slots today. Slot times are fixed at 12 seconds. Quick Slots (EIP-8198) fixes that. The business case is clear: faster confirmations, fresher onchain prices, and faster finality. Pay the one time cost, reduce slot times to 10 seconds then ratchet lower. With Glamsterdam scaling improvements coming online, maybe it's time to reorient the performance canon towards shorter slots. In this episode of Credible Commitments @barnabemonnot makes the case for Quick Slots inclusion in Hegotá. Full episode links below.
