Description
Limit a source validator’s movable balance by the target validator’s available room, accounting for already-reserved incoming consolidations.
Abstract
This EIP modifies EIP-7251 by limiting the balance a source validator can consolidate into a target validator. The transferable amount is capped by the target validator’s available room, defined as MAX_EFFECTIVE_BALANCE_ELECTRA minus its current effective balance and any other incoming consolidations already reserved in the queue. This prevents consolidation overflow withdrawals which side-step the intended churn budgets. Incoming consolidations are tracked by adding a reserved_balance field to the BeaconState.
