  • Faster finality increases settlement assurances and blockchain's trustworthiness.
INSIGHT

Scaling Blob Space

  • EIP 4844 lays the groundwork for data sharding by introducing blob space.
  • Increasing blob count and implementing peer DAS and full dank sharding are the next steps.
INSIGHT

Data Availability Sampling

  • Data availability sampling (DAS) enables nodes to verify data without downloading everything.
  • DAS is crucial for rollups to inherit Layer 1's security guarantees.
