I enjoyed the episode. It's interesting that they chose to withhold this eye from us until now. I like the themes, and characters and i hope they maintain the design.

Also, it feels like the purple Genjutsu snake was Orochimaru-like, so i'm curious there. Would be a really interesting and dark theme if Orochimaru sold all his secrets in exchange for amnesty after the 4th War and people are now trying to use/abuse it.

Lousy "no speculation" rules... To be honest, it doesn't really look like a byakugan. In fact, it looks nothing like any known Dojutsu.

-Boruto's eye is white with black, almost like Edo Tensei

-the eye itself glows blue, unlike a Byakugan.

-The eye lacks the flower-pattern of the Tenseigan.

-it lacks the lavender look of Anime-byakugan

-it lacks the inner circle of the Byakugan

-it lacks the bulging veins etc of the byakugan.

-it also doesn't sound like a Byakugan or anything we know.

It also seems to grant Chakra-sight and the ability to see spirits (See: Boruto manga) but not the X-ray vision or far sight of the Byakugan. Boruto can also easily use nature transforms and easily invents jutsu. So it's more of a Rinnegan-light.
