## Description

Video about Commit-Boost The video features Drew discussing his dedication to Ethereum and his work on Proposer Commitments, specifically a concept called Commit Boost. He clarifies that Commit Boost is not a fork or rewrite of an existing protocol but an initiative to improve the user and developer experience on Ethereum. Drew emphasizes the importance of standardization in the last mile of communication between proposers and protocols to prevent fragmentation and reduce switching costs for validators.

He presents Proposer Commitments as a way to give validators more control over block construction, with quotes from Ethereum researchers supporting this view. Drew also mentions that current solutions like MEV-Boost are just one component of broader Proposer Commitments.

Commit Boost aims to be a nonprofit public good, with hopes for community alignment and grant funding to support dedicated developers. The technical discussion led by Kuby from Titan outlines how they plan to evolve proposer commitments infrastructure through modular design, enabling different types of commitments without requiring consensus layer (CL) changes.

Lorenzo from Gattaca then demonstrates the first proof of concept for Commit Boost, showcasing its modularity and how it can interface with existing systems like MEV-Boost while allowing for custom modules.

Drew concludes by addressing sustainability concerns, expressing hope for substantial public funding to support this initiative over the next few years,
