Add EIP: Leaf-level state expiry in verkle trees

Open gballet opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

This proposal relies on the structure of verkle trees to implement state expiry. A counter is maintained at the extension node level, and only extention-and-suffix nodes (colloquially referred to as "leaves") are deleted.

This is based on the EPF work done by @weiihann, with some added verkle-friendliness.
