Why it matters: It simplifies common bit operations in smart contracts, benefiting developers and reducing costs for certain computations.

FIP-113

secp256r1 (P-256) P256VERIFY Precompile for FEVM

What changes: This proposal adds a `P256VERIFY` precompile for efficient ECDSA signature verification on the secp256r1 curve in FEVM.
Why it matters: It simplifies authentication processes and enhances compatibility with existing EVM tools, benefiting developers and applications in the Filecoin ecosystem.

FIP-112

Export Sector Status to FEVM

What changes: New methods for querying sector status and expiration will be added to the builtin miner actor for FEVM smart contracts.
Why it matters: This enables developers to create advanced storage applications by accessing real-time sector information, enhancing the Filecoin ecosystem.

FIP-111

Add Support for EIP-7702 (Set Code for EOAs) in the FEVM

What changes: This proposal adds support for EIP-7702 in the Filecoin Ethereum Virtual Machine, enabling EOAs to delegate execution to smart contracts.
Why it matters: This change enhances user experience by allowing batch transactions and improves compatibility with Ethereum tools, benefiting developers and users alike.
