ICYMI: Ethereum developer Tim Beiko emphasizes a great urgency to help support an ecosystem-wide migration to rollups ETH $ETH
, the last phase of sharding, which is critical for scaling the network, may not occur until 2023. It appears that full scaling will take at least a year, meaning that it will take some time.shared by Tim Beiko, Ethereum developer, notes that transaction fees on Ethereum L1 have been very high for months, and there is a greater urgency to do whatever it takes to help support an ecosystem-wide migration to rollups.
Rollups are thought to be the sole trustless scaling solution for Ethereum in the short and medium term, and maybe in the long term. Although rollups drastically lower fees for many Ethereum users, these prices may appear to the average ETH user to be prohibitively expensive. Remarkably, Optimism and Arbitrum rollups frequently provide fees that are nearly 3-8 times lower than the Ethereum base layer itself, and ZK rollups, which have better data compression and can avoid including signatures, have fees nearly 40-100 times lower than the base layer.
Buterin claims that plans for a near-future hard fork to introduce"blob-carrying transactions" that would improve rollup scalability are already in the works. By implementing the transaction format that would be used in sharding but not actually sharding those transactions, this EIP would provide a stop-gap solution until the moment at which the transaction format would be utilized in sharding.
This provides rollups with temporary scaling relief by allowing them to scale up to 2 MB per slot, with a separate fee market allowing rates to be kept low while utilization is limited.Data sharding, which would add almost 16 MB per block of dedicated data space to the chain that rollups may use, has always been Ethereum's long-term solution to the long-term inadequacy of rollups.
