One of the things I was curious about when @category_xyz dropped Monad_NINE update was beyond what it is and how it makes @monad better, I was wondering “exactly HOW does it provide more design space for developers” The first item I came across couldn’t be more obvious considering the team ⬇️

@Don_Monad @monad Monad is spreading 🔥


MIP-8 (Page-ified Storage State) has been drafted by researchers at @category_xyz . This proposal makes storage page-aware. The EVM has 32-byte slots, but hardware works in 4 KB pages. Reading one slot pulls in a whole page; once that is done, the true cost to read any other slots from that page is very small. Under MIP-8, a 4096-byte (128 slot) page becomes the unit of access and commitment. Storage is grouped into pages, and each page is committed with a binary tree. Under MIP-8, gas is priced accordingly. The first touch to a page is expensive. Once loaded, all slots in that page are warm. This makes contiguous layouts (arrays, structs) naturally cheaper, without any disruption to sparse layouts (mappings). We believe that MIP-8 aligns gas costs more closely with true costs of state access. It incentivizes developers to choose storage patterns that utilize slots from the same page, and allows developers to build performant EVM apps that utilize state access efficiently.
