Adds rule to EIP-1 that references to other EIPs must use relative path format and the first reference must be linked. (#2947)
I have gone through and updated all existing EIPs to match this rule, including EIP-1.

In some cases, people were using markdown citations, I suspect because the long-form was a bit verbose to inline.  Since the relative path is quite short, I moved these to inline but I wouldn't be opposed to putting them back to citation format if that is desired by the authors.

In doing the migration/cleanup, I found some EIP references to EIPs that don't actually exist.  In these cases I tried to excise the reference from the EIP as best I could.

It is worth noting that the Readme actually already had this rule, it just wasn't expressed properly in EIP-1 and the "Citation Format" section of the readme I think caused people a bit of confusion (when citing externally, you should use the citation format).

Spurious Dragon

Parameters

  • FORK_BLKNUM: 2,675,000
  • CHAIN_ID: 1

Specification

If block.number >= FORK_BLKNUM, increase the gas cost of EXP from 10 + 10 per byte in the exponent to 10 + 50 per byte in the exponent.

Rationale

Benchmarks suggest that EXP is currently underpriced by a factor of about 48.
