**EIP-8272 recent roots** (eipproof, fork bogota, snapshot 2026-11-05T13:27:26Z)

- Nethermind: pass 80/80. All 80 tests for this EIP passed on v2.0.0, and EELS implements the current EIP text. [evidence](https://nethermindeth.github.io/eipproof/index.html#8272-nethermind)
- Geth: pass 80/80. All 80 tests for this EIP passed on v2.0.0, and EELS implements the current EIP text. [evidence](https://nethermindeth.github.io/eipproof/index.html#8272-go-ethereum)
- Reth: pass 80/80. All 80 tests for this EIP passed on v2.0.0, and EELS implements the current EIP text. [evidence](https://nethermindeth.github.io/eipproof/index.html#8272-reth)
- ethrex: pass 80/80. All 80 tests for this EIP passed on v2.0.0, and EELS implements the current EIP text. [evidence](https://nethermindeth.github.io/eipproof/index.html#8272-ethrex)
- Besu: old tests v1.1.1. Besu's newest run used tests v1.1.1, but the newest EELS release is v2.0.0. Old tests do not check the current spec, so the old 73/73 is shown but does not count. Next: run v2.0.0. [evidence](https://nethermindeth.github.io/eipproof/index.html#8272-besu)
