EVM Execution Layer ⟠
The execution layer consists of multiple implementations in the form of EVM execution clients. These clients handle transactions, transaction gossiping, state management, and support for the Ethereum Virtual Machine - they are not responsible for block building.
The following execution clients have been tested and verified by BeaconKit:
