## Introduction
This document represents the specification for Phase 0 of Ethereum 2.0 -- The Beacon Chain.
At the core of Ethereum 2.0 is a system chain called the "beacon chain". The beacon chain stores and manages the registry of validators. In the initial deployment phases of Ethereum 2.0, the only mechanism to become a validator is to make a one-way ETH transaction to a deposit contract on Ethereum 1.0. Activation as a validator happens when Ethereum 1.0 deposit receipts are processed by the beacon chain, the activation balance is reached, and a queuing process is completed. Exit is either voluntary or done forcibly as a penalty for misbehavior.
The primary source of load on the beacon chain is "attestations". Attestations are simultaneously availability votes for a shard block (Phase 1) and proof-of-stake votes for a beacon block (Phase 0).
## Notation
Code snippets appearing in `this style` are to be interpreted as Python 3 code.
## Custom types
We define the following Python custom types for type hinting and readability:
| Name | SSZ equivalent | Description |
| - | - | - |
| `Slot` | `uint64` | a slot number |
| `Epoch` | `uint64` | an epoch number |
| `CommitteeIndex` | `uint64` | a committee index at a slot |
| `ValidatorIndex` | `uint64` | a validator registry index |
| `Gwei` | `uint64` | an amount in Gwei |
| `Hash` | `Bytes32` | a hash |
| `Version` | `Bytes4` | a fork version number |
| `DomainType` | `Bytes4` | a domain type |
| `Domain` | `Bytes8` | a signature domain |
| `BLSPubkey` | `Bytes48` | a BLS12-381 public key |
| `BLSSignature` | `Bytes96` | a BLS12-381 signature |
## Constants
The following values are (non-configurable) constants used throughout the specification.
| Name | Value |
| - | - |
| `FAR_FUTURE_EPOCH` | `Epoch(2**64 - 1)` |
| `BASE_REWARDS_PER_EPOCH` | `4` |
| `DEPOSIT_CONTRACT_TREE_DEPTH` | `2**5` (= 32) |
| `SECONDS_PER_DAY` | `86400` |
| `JUSTIFICATION_BITS_LENGTH` | `4` |
| `ENDIANNESS` | `'little'` |
## 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.
### Misc
| Name | Value |
| - | - |
| `MAX_COMMITTEES_PER_SLOT` | `2**6` (= 64) |
| `TARGET_COMMITTEE_SIZE` | `2**7` (= 128) |
| `MAX_VALIDATORS_PER_COMMITTEE` | `2**11` (= 2,048) |
| `MIN_PER_EPOCH_CHURN_LIMIT` | `2**2` (= 4) |
| `CHURN_LIMIT_QUOTIENT` | `2**16` (= 65,536) |
| `SHUFFLE_ROUND_COUNT` | `90` |
| `MIN_GENESIS_ACTIVE_VALIDATOR_COUNT` | `2**16` (= 65,536) |
| `MIN_GENESIS_TIME` | `1578009600` (Jan 3, 2020) |
- For the safety of committees, `TARGET_COMMITTEE_SIZE` exceeds [the recommended minimum committee size of 111](https://vitalik.ca/files/Ithaca201807_Sharding.pdf); with sufficient active validators (at least `SLOTS_PER_EPOCH * TARGET_COMMITTEE_SIZE`), the shuffling algorithm ensures committee sizes of at least `TARGET_COMMITTEE_SIZE`. (Unbiasable randomness with a Verifiable Delay Function (VDF) will improve committee robustness and lower the safe minimum committee size.)
### Gwei values
| Name | Value |
| - | - |
| `MIN_DEPOSIT_AMOUNT` | `Gwei(2**0 * 10**9)` (= 1,000,000,000) |
| `MAX_EFFECTIVE_BALANCE` | `Gwei(2**5 * 10**9)` (= 32,000,000,000) |
| `EJECTION_BALANCE` | `Gwei(2**4 * 10**9)` (= 16,000,000,000) |
| `EFFECTIVE_BALANCE_INCREMENT` | `Gwei(2**0 * 10**9)` (= 1,000,000,000) |
### Initial values
| Name | Value |
| - | - |
| `GENESIS_SLOT` | `Slot(0)` |
| `GENESIS_EPOCH` | `Epoch(0)` |
| `BLS_WITHDRAWAL_PREFIX` | `Bytes1(b'\x00')` |
### Time parameters
| Name | Value | Unit | Duration |
| - | - | :-: | :-: |
| `SECONDS_PER_SLOT` | `12` | seconds | 12 seconds |
| `MIN_ATTESTATION_INCLUSION_DELAY` | `2**0` (= 1) | slots | 12 seconds |
| `SLOTS_PER_EPOCH` | `2**5` (= 32) | slots | 6.4 minutes |
| `MIN_SEED_LOOKAHEAD` | `2**0` (= 1) | epochs | 6.4 minutes |
| `MAX_SEED_LOOKAHEAD` | `2**2` (= 4) | epochs | 25.6 minutes |
| `SLOTS_PER_ETH1_VOTING_PERIOD` | `2**10` (= 1,024) | slots | ~1.7 hours |
| `SLOTS_PER_HISTORICAL_ROOT` | `2**13` (= 8,192) | slots | ~13 hours |
| `MIN_VALIDATOR_WITHDRAWABILITY_DELAY` | `2**8` (= 256) | epochs | ~27 hours |
| `PERSISTENT_COMMITTEE_PERIOD` | `2**11` (= 2,048) | epochs | 9 days |
| `MIN_EPOCHS_TO_INACTIVITY_PENALTY` | `2**2` (= 4) | epochs | 25.6 minutes |
### State list lengths
| Name | Value | Unit | Duration |
| - | - | :-: | :-: |
| `EPOCHS_PER_HISTORICAL_VECTOR` | `2**16` (= 65,536) | epochs | ~0.8 years |
| `EPOCHS_PER_SLASHINGS_VECTOR` | `2**13` (= 8,192) | epochs | ~36 days |
| `HISTORICAL_ROOTS_LIMIT` | `2**24` (= 16,777,216) | historical roots | ~26,131 years |
| `VALIDATOR_REGISTRY_LIMIT` | `2**40` (= 1,099,511,627,776) | validator spots |
### Rewards and penalties
| Name | Value |
| - | - |
| `BASE_REWARD_FACTOR` | `2**6` (= 64) |
| `WHISTLEBLOWER_REWARD_QUOTIENT` | `2**9` (= 512) |
| `PROPOSER_REWARD_QUOTIENT` | `2**3` (= 8) |
| `INACTIVITY_PENALTY_QUOTIENT` | `2**25` (= 33,554,432) |
| `MIN_SLASHING_PENALTY_QUOTIENT` | `2**5` (= 32) |
- The `INACTIVITY_PENALTY_QUOTIENT` equals `INVERSE_SQRT_E_DROP_TIME**2` where `INVERSE_SQRT_E_DROP_TIME := 2**12 epochs` (about 18 days) is the time it takes the inactivity penalty to reduce the balance of non-participating validators to about `1/sqrt(e) ~= 60.6%`. Indeed, the balance retained by offline validators after `n` epochs is about `(1 - 1/INACTIVITY_PENALTY_QUOTIENT)**(n**2/2)`; so after `INVERSE_SQRT_E_DROP_TIME` epochs, it is roughly `(1 - 1/INACTIVITY_PENALTY_QUOTIENT)**(INACTIVITY_PENALTY_QUOTIENT/2) ~= 1/sqrt(e)`.
### Max operations per block
| Name | Value |
| - | - |
| `MAX_PROPOSER_SLASHINGS` | `2**4` (= 16) |
| `MAX_ATTESTER_SLASHINGS` | `2**0` (= 1) |
| `MAX_ATTESTATIONS` | `2**7` (= 128) |
| `MAX_DEPOSITS` | `2**4` (= 16) |
| `MAX_VOLUNTARY_EXITS` | `2**4` (= 16) |
| `MAX_TRANSFERS` | `0` |
### Domain types
The following types are defined, mapping into `DomainType` (little endian):
| Name | Value |
| - | - |
| `DOMAIN_BEACON_PROPOSER` | `0` |
| `DOMAIN_BEACON_ATTESTER` | `1` |
| `DOMAIN_RANDAO` | `2` |
| `DOMAIN_DEPOSIT` | `3` |
| `DOMAIN_VOLUNTARY_EXIT` | `4` |
| `DOMAIN_TRANSFER` | `5` |

## Genesis
Before the Ethereum 2.0 genesis has been triggered, and for every Ethereum 1.0 block, let `candidate_state = initialize_beacon_state_from_eth1(eth1_block_hash, eth1_timestamp, deposits)` where:
- `eth1_block_hash` is the hash of the Ethereum 1.0 block
- `eth1_timestamp` is the Unix timestamp corresponding to `eth1_block_hash`
- `deposits` is the sequence of all deposits, ordered chronologically, up to the block with hash `eth1_block_hash`
```python
def initialize_beacon_state_from_eth1(eth1_block_hash: Hash,
eth1_timestamp: uint64,
deposits: Sequence[Deposit]) -> BeaconState:
state = BeaconState(
genesis_time=eth1_timestamp - eth1_timestamp % SECONDS_PER_DAY + 2 * SECONDS_PER_DAY,
eth1_data=Eth1Data(block_hash=eth1_block_hash, deposit_count=len(deposits)),
latest_block_header=BeaconBlockHeader(body_root=hash_tree_root(BeaconBlockBody())),
)
# Process deposits
leaves = list(map(lambda deposit: deposit.data, deposits))
for index, deposit in enumerate(deposits):
deposit_data_list = List[DepositData, 2**DEPOSIT_CONTRACT_TREE_DEPTH](*leaves[:index + 1])
state.eth1_data.deposit_root = hash_tree_root(deposit_data_list)
process_deposit(state, deposit)
# Process activations
for index, validator in enumerate(state.validators):
balance = state.balances[index]
validator.effective_balance = min(balance - balance % EFFECTIVE_BALANCE_INCREMENT, MAX_EFFECTIVE_BALANCE)
if validator.effective_balance == MAX_EFFECTIVE_BALANCE:
validator.activation_eligibility_epoch = GENESIS_EPOCH
validator.activation_epoch = GENESIS_EPOCH
return state
```
### Genesis state
Let `genesis_state = candidate_state` whenever `is_valid_genesis_state(candidate_state) is True` for the first time.
```python
def is_valid_genesis_state(state: BeaconState) -> bool:
if state.genesis_time < MIN_GENESIS_TIME:
return False
if len(get_active_validator_indices(state, GENESIS_EPOCH)) < MIN_GENESIS_ACTIVE_VALIDATOR_COUNT:
return False
return True
```
*Note*: The `is_valid_genesis_state` function (including `MIN_GENESIS_TIME` and `MIN_GENESIS_ACTIVE_VALIDATOR_COUNT`) is a placeholder for testing. It has yet to be finalized by the community, and can be updated as necessary.
### Genesis block
Let `genesis_block = BeaconBlock(state_root=hash_tree_root(genesis_state))`.
## Beacon chain state transition function
The post-state corresponding to a pre-state `state` and a block `block` is defined as `state_transition(state, block)`. State transitions that trigger an unhandled exception (e.g. a failed `assert` or an out-of-range list access) are considered invalid.
```python
def state_transition(state: BeaconState, block: BeaconBlock, validate_state_root: bool=False) -> BeaconState:
# Process slots (including those with no blocks) since block
process_slots(state, block.slot)
# Process block
process_block(state, block)
# Validate state root (`validate_state_root == True` in production)
if validate_state_root:
assert block.state_root == hash_tree_root(state)
# Return post-state
return state
```
```python
def process_slots(state: BeaconState, slot: Slot) -> None:
assert state.slot <= slot
while state.slot < slot:
process_slot(state)
# Process epoch on the start slot of the next epoch
if (state.slot + 1) % SLOTS_PER_EPOCH == 0:
process_epoch(state)
state.slot += Slot(1)
```
```python
def process_slot(state: BeaconState) -> None:
# Cache state root
previous_state_root = hash_tree_root(state)
state.state_roots[state.slot % SLOTS_PER_HISTORICAL_ROOT] = previous_state_root
# Cache latest block header state root
if state.latest_block_header.state_root == Bytes32():
state.latest_block_header.state_root = previous_state_root
# Cache block root
previous_block_root = signing_root(state.latest_block_header)
state.block_roots[state.slot % SLOTS_PER_HISTORICAL_ROOT] = previous_block_root
```
