# WEEK 3 This week was kinda diverse as I spent quite some time in the ppt for office hour. Along with that, I and [Rimeeeeee](https://github.com/Rimeeeeee) started our implemention of BAL in reth. ## This week's work: As discussed with our mentor we started working on it on our local fork for ease of write access. We created a seperate crate to avoid the conflicts. We created the initial structs in a local branch of [alloy](https://github.com/Soubhik-10/alloy/tree/bal). We also added Block Access List field in the block body (for now) and fixed the tests and no-std accordingly. As of now we are using rlp instead of ssz as discussed with our mentor. Apart from these we started working on the tracer implementations in [reth](https://github.com/Rimeeeeee/reth/tree/bal). We hope we will get this done in a couple of weeks and move onto the next steps. Additionally I solved one [issue](https://github.com/alloy-rs/alloy/issues/2641) in alloy. # Next Week Plan Complete the tracers and get it reviewed by our mentor. # Resources and PRs * [Some Core Structures For BAL PR](https://github.com/Soubhik-10/alloy/pull/1) * [Changes To Block PR made with Rimeeeeee](https://github.com/Soubhik-10/alloy/pull/4) * [Added StorageChange Inspector for BAL (WIP) made with Rimeeeeee](https://github.com/Rimeeeeee/reth/pull/8) * [Oneshot impersonations for Anvil](https://github.com/alloy-rs/alloy/pull/2645)
