EIP-7600: Hardfork Meta - Pectra

EIPs included in the Prague/Electra Ethereum network upgrade.

In simple terms

What does EIP-7600 do?

All the EIPs coming in the next network upgrade: Pectra (Prague/Electra).

Why is it important?

Pectra upgrade is scheduled for release by the end of Q1 2025. It will be the next big upgrade and the one after won't come soon, so all the changes are important and will be the status quo for the foreseeable future.
