# Max EB Meeting Agenda
Link to [current most updated max EB spec](https://github.com/dapplion/consensus-specs/tree/eip-7251/specs/_features/eip7251)
### The case for MaxEB in electra
- currently 977k active validators - we don’t have testing beyond 1.6 million
- we bought ourselves time with [EIP-7514](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-7514) but this was a bandaid, we must use the time we bought
- re-staking is just around the corner and we have no idea how much additional demand that could generate for staking
- `MAX_PER_EPOCH_ACTIVATION_CHURN_LIMIT` allows us to hit 1.6 million validators in 1 year
- the longer we wait to implement this, the less impact it will have on the overall validator set size
- if the number of validators becomes a problem, our only other option is adjusting the issuance curve which is **extremely** contentious
- an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure
- seems to be a strong desire for this from the community
- hardly any complexity on the Execution Layer given that they've already agreed to implement [EIP-7002](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-7002)
- my initial read on this from Lighthouse is that it's not too difficult
### Remaining decisions to make in the spec
How do we handle changing to `COMPOUNDING_WITHDRAWAL_PREFIX`?
- adjust inside [`process_pending_balance_deposits()`](https://github.com/ethDreamer/eth2.0-specs/blob/eip-7251/specs/_features/eip7251/beacon-chain.md#new-process_pending_balance_deposits) & [`process_pending_consolidations()`](https://github.com/ethDreamer/eth2.0-specs/blob/eip-7251/specs/_features/eip7251/beacon-chain.md#new-process_pending_consolidations)
* This would require people to top up 1 ETH to become compounding without consolidating
- Add beacon operation similar to `BLS_TO_EXECUTION_CHANGE` (more complex)
How do we stuff blocks with `SignedConsolidation`'s?
- Require a block proposal / off-chain solution from staking pools
- Gossip a beacon operation (more complex)
### Max EB vs Inclusion Lists
- Does the Prysm team still feel like MaxEB is too complex to put into Electra?
- Would it be too ambitious to do both?
### Edge cases to consider
- Double stuffing `SignedConsolidation`s in blocks
- Creating validators with `0x02` credentials before the fork
