# EIPs Insight (April 2022)

## Summary

In April, one ERC category [EIP-2098: Compact Signature Representation](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-2098) was moved to `Final`. It is a standard with a compact representation of an Ethereum Signature to simplify handling transactions in client code, reduce gas costs and reduce transaction sizes. Check out [PEEPanEIP-2098: Compact Signature Representation with Richard Moore](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cn2C4PzOuV0) to learn more about this Ethereum Standard.

[7 new EIPs](https://hackmd.io/@poojaranjan/EIPsInsightApril2022#New-proposals-Draft) (of ERC category) are added to the repository as `Draft` and [16 Potential `Draft` Proposals](https://hackmd.io/@poojaranjan/EIPsInsightApril2022#Potential-Draft-Proposals) are opened as new pull requests.

[2 EIPs](https://hackmd.io/@poojaranjan/EIPsInsightApril2022#To-Stagnant) are moved to `Stagnant` due to longer inactivity, [1 EIP](https://hackmd.io/@poojaranjan/BJjzyRt7q#From-Stagnant) has been resurrected from `Stagnant` and is available for `Review`.

[EIP-1967: Standard Proxy Storage Slots](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-1967) is in the `Last Call` ending on April 24th. Open [PR](https://github.com/ethereum/EIPs/pull/5061) for revisions before Final.
