# Ethereum 2.0 Phase 1 -- The Beacon Chain for Shards **Notice**: This document is a work-in-progress for researchers and implementers. ## Table of contents TODO ## Introduction This document describes the extensions made to the Phase 0 design of The Beacon Chain to facilitate the new shards as part of Phase 1 of Eth2. ## Custom types We define the following Python custom types for type hinting and readability: | Name | SSZ equivalent | Description | | - | - | - | | `Shard` | `uint64` | a shard number | ## Configuration Configuration is not namespaced. Instead it is strictly an extension; no constants of phase 0 change, but new constants are adopted for changing behaviors. ### Misc | Name | Value | Unit | Duration | | - | - | - | - | | `MAX_SHARDS` | `2**10` (= 1024) | | `ACTIVE_SHARDS` | `2**6` (= 64) | | `ONLINE_PERIOD` | `Epoch(2**3)` (= 8) | epochs | ~51 min | | `LIGHT_CLIENT_COMMITTEE_SIZE` | `2**7` (= 128) | | `LIGHT_CLIENT_COMMITTEE_PERIOD` | `Epoch(2**8)` (= 256) | epochs | ~27 hours | | `SHARD_COMMITTEE_PERIOD` | `Epoch(2**8)` (= 256) | epochs | ~27 hours | | `SHARD_BLOCK_CHUNK_SIZE` | `2**18` (= 262,144) | | | `MAX_SHARD_BLOCK_CHUNKS` | `2**2` (= 4) | | | `TARGET_SHARD_BLOCK_SIZE` | `3 * 2**16` (= 196,608) | | | `SHARD_BLOCK_OFFSETS` | `[1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233]` | | | `MAX_SHARD_BLOCKS_PER_ATTESTATION` | `len(SHARD_BLOCK_OFFSETS)` | | | `EMPTY_CHUNK_ROOT` | `hash_tree_root(BytesN[SHARD_BLOCK_CHUNK_SIZE]())` | | | `MAX_GASPRICE` | `Gwei(2**14)` (= 16,384) | Gwei | | | `MIN_GASPRICE` | `Gwei(2**5)` (= 32) | Gwei | | | `GASPRICE_ADJUSTMENT_COEFFICIENT` | `2**3` (= 8) | | | `DOMAIN_LIGHT_CLIENT` | `192` | | | `DOMAIN_SHARD_COMMITTEE` | `192` | | | `DOMAIN_SHARD_PROPOSAL` | `193` | | ##
