Block proposal

Deposits

[New in Electra:EIP6110 The expected number of deposits MUST be changed from min(MAX_DEPOSITS, eth1_data.deposit_count - state.eth1_deposit_index) to the result of the following function:

def get_eth1_pending_deposit_count(state: BeaconState) -> uint64:
    eth1_deposit_index_limit = min(state.eth1_data.deposit_count, state.deposit_receipts_start_index)
    if state.eth1_deposit_index < eth1_deposit_index_limit:
        return min(MAX_DEPOSITS, eth1_deposit_index_limit - state.eth1_deposit_index)
    else:
        return uint64(0)
