# EPF5 Dev Updates - Week 1 It has been a wonderful experience so far listening to the mentors present at the office hour and other participants. You know how it is when in a room full of smart people. Sometimes I feel like I am the dullest person in the room.🤗 It just made me realise how much studying I need to do to be able to catch up with some of the terminologies used in office hour and discussions. I know with consistency I will get there!🧑‍💻 ## What I did this week - Joined the daily standup and office hour ( Learnt about Security by Fredrik) - Studied the Protocol Wiki documentation on Week 1 and also read visited and read contents provided in the Week 1 wiki. - Studied the Ethereum roadmap - Went through Cohort 5 repo and read the informations provided - Studied Introduction to Cryptography - Went through the program repo and also checked the project ideas listed. - Selected some of the suggested ideas that caught my interest. ### Ideas I intend to explore from the list - Teku -https://github.com/ConsenSys/teku/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3AEpic+ - ERC-4337 tooling support - By Yoav Weiss - Ephemery testnet - Mario - API for calculating ETH supply - Consensus specs By HWW - Ipsilon Research around the EVM, specifically (but limited to): - EOF-compatible 4337 - Consensus-level eth supply calculation and exposing it as an opcode - EVM memory repricing -- analysis and proposing a solution - EVM analysis and design of transfer functions (executing and non-executing) Cohort 1 ideas - https://github.com/eth-protocol-fellows/cohort-one/issues/58 - https://github.com/eth-protocol-fellows/cohort-one/issues/24 - https://github.com/eth-protocol-fellows/cohort-one/issues/28 Cohort 2 ideas - Consensus client reward APIs ## What I will do next week - Continue from where I stop on the Wiki documents - Continue watching the past office hour sessions - Further reduce the idea list ## Blockers - None at the moment ## References - [EPF Wiki Week 1](https://epf.wiki/#/eps/week1) - [Ethereum Protocol Fellowship Youtube](https://www.youtube.com/@ethprotocolfellows) - [EPF Cohort 5 ideas](https://github.com/eth-protocol-fellows/cohort-five/blob/main/projects/project-ideas.md) - [EPF Cohort 5 Repo](https://github.com/eth-protocol-fellows/cohort-five/tree/main) - [Ethereum Roadmap](https://ethereum.org/en/roadmap/)
