The upcoming Ethereum Hegota upgrade introduces the FOCIL mechanism, which aims to prevent transaction censorship by forcing valid transactions into blocks through a committee of 17 randomly selected validators. The system is designed to maintain network neutrality but may also raise legal and compliance concerns, as it could limit validators' ability to filter out malicious transactions. Additionally, this upgrade supports smart wallets through account abstraction and offers convenient features such as social recovery and Gas fee sponsorship.
