Last week, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin tweeted a technical FAQ for EIP-4844 – also known as “proto-danksharding.”
In short, this proposal will initiate a more efficient way to organize data logistics to support high transaction throughput. It could be thought of as a way to scale data availability.
In theory, this should keep a handle on gas fees, a major sore point for users, and optimize for speed.
“EIP-4844 introduces a new kind of transaction type to ethereum which accepts “blobs” of data to be persisted in the beacon-node for a short period of time.”
Underpinning this is “blobs,” but what are they, and how do they work?
Why are “blobs” needed on Ethereum?
Sharding is a process that breaks down data into two or more, smaller chunks. These chunks are then distributed across separate database nodes, referred to as physical shards, which hold multiple different chunks.
This is advantageous because it enables scaling beyond the capacity of a single host sy
