## Introduction
This document represents the specification for the beacon chain deposit contract, part of Ethereum 2.0 Phase 0.
## Constants
The following values are (non-configurable) constants used throughout the specification.
| Name | Value |
| - | - |
| `DEPOSIT_CONTRACT_TREE_DEPTH` | `2**5` (= 32) |
## Configuration
*Note*: The default mainnet configuration values are included here for spec-design purposes.
The different configurations for mainnet, testnets, and YAML-based testing can be found in the [`configs/constant_presets`](../../configs) directory.
These configurations are updated for releases and may be out of sync during `dev` changes.
| Name | Value |
| - | - |
| `DEPOSIT_CHAIN_ID` | `1` |
| `DEPOSIT_NETWORK_ID` | `1` |
| `DEPOSIT_CONTRACT_ADDRESS` | `0x00000000219ab540356cBB839Cbe05303d7705Fa` |
## Ethereum 1.0 deposit contract
The initial deployment phases of Ethereum 2.0 are implemented without consensus changes to Ethereum 1.0. A deposit contract at address `DEPOSIT_CONTRACT_ADDRESS` is added to the Ethereum 1.0 chain defined by the [chain-id](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-155) -- `DEPOSIT_CHAIN_ID` -- and the network-id -- `DEPOSIT_NETWORK_ID` -- for deposits of ETH to the beacon chain. Validator balances will be withdrawable to the shards in Phase 2.
_Note_: See [here](https://chainid.network/) for a comprehensive list of public Ethereum chain chain-id's and network-id's.
### `deposit` function
The deposit contract has a public `deposit` function to make deposits. It takes as arguments `bytes calldata pubkey, bytes calldata withdrawal_credentials, bytes calldata signature, bytes32 deposit_data_root`. The first three arguments populate a [`DepositData`](./beacon-chain.md#depositdata) object, and `deposit_data_root` is the expected `DepositData` root as a protection against malformatted calldata.
#### Deposit amount
The amount of ETH (rounded down to the closest Gwei) sent to the deposit contract is the deposit amount, which must be of size at least `MIN_DEPOSIT_AMOUNT` Gwei. Note that ETH consumed by the deposit contract is no longer usable on Ethereum 1.0.
#### Withdrawal credentials
One of the `DepositData` fields is `withdrawal_credentials`. It is a commitment to credentials for withdrawing validator balance (e.g. to another validator, or to shards). The first byte of `withdrawal_credentials` is a version number. As of now, the only expected format is as follows:
* `withdrawal_credentials[:1] == BLS_WITHDRAWAL_PREFIX`
* `withdrawal_credentials[1:] == hash(withdrawal_pubkey)[1:]` where `withdrawal_pubkey` is a BLS pubkey
The private key corresponding to `withdrawal_pubkey` will be required to initiate a withdrawal. It can be stored separately until a withdrawal is required, e.g. in cold storage.
#### `DepositEvent` log
Every Ethereum 1.0 deposit emits a `DepositEvent` log for consumption by the beacon chain. The deposit contract does little validation, pushing most of the validator onboarding logic to the beacon chain. In particular, the proof of possession (a BLS12-381 signature) is not verified by the deposit contract.
## Solidity code
The deposit contract source code, written in Solidity, is available [here](../../solidity_deposit_contract/deposit_contract.sol).
*Note*: To save on gas, the deposit contract uses a progressive Merkle root calculation algorithm that requires only O(log(n)) storage. See [here](https://github.com/ethereum/research/blob/master/beacon_chain_impl/progressive_merkle_tree.py) for a Python implementation, and [here](https://github.com/runtimeverification/verified-smart-contracts/blob/master/deposit/formal-incremental-merkle-tree-algorithm.pdf) for a formal correctness proof.
