Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIPs) describe standards for the Ethereum platform, including core protocol specifications, client APIs, and contract standards.

A browsable version of all current and draft EIPs can be found on [the official EIP site](http://eips.ethereum.org/).

# Contributing
First review [EIP-1](EIPS/eip-1.md). Then clone the repository and add your EIP to it. There is a [template EIP here](eip-X.md). Then submit a Pull Request to Ethereum's [EIPs repository](https://github.com/ethereum/EIPs).

# EIP status terms
* **Draft** - an EIP that is open for consideration
* **Accepted** - an EIP that is planned for immediate adoption, i.e. expected to be included in the next hard fork (for Core/Consensus layer EIPs).
* **Final** - an EIP that has been adopted in a previous hard fork (for Core/Consensus layer EIPs).
* **Deferred** - an EIP that is not being considered for immediate adoption. May be reconsidered in the future for a subsequent hard fork.
