Ethereum

<p>The EIP 4844 or Proto-Danksharding is arguably one of the most significant updates for Ethereum, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency. Highly anticipated by the community, its activation is planned for the first quarter of 2024. This update will enable a reduction in layer 2 (L2) transaction fees. Moreover, it will enhance the overall performance of Ethereum.</p> 
<h2 id="h-reduction-of-fees-and-network-throughput-improvement">Reduction of Fees and Network Throughput Improvement</h2> 
<p>The EIP 4844 aims to reduce transaction fees on <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/layer-2-comprendre-la-mise-a-lechelle-de-la-seconde-couche/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">layer 2 (L2) solutions</a>, potentially decreasing them by a factor of seven. The <strong>reduction of transaction fees</strong> will be accompanied by an increase in bandwidth on the network. According to expert Ryan Berckmans, the EIP 4844 should allow for the creation of a more efficient market for data storage. This is what he calls “<em>blob market clearance</em>,” which will notably <strong>increase Ethereum’s throughput by sixfold</strong>.</p>

<p>The upgrade won’t impact the gas costs of the main layer (L1), ensuring the stability of execution costs. Consequently, <strong>Ethereum’s profitability and throughput will increase by 600%.</strong> With the introduction of the EIP 4844, L2 solutions will evolve the Ethereum crypto network in an unprecedented way, as they will benefit from the upgrade and contribute to Ethereum’s scaling.</p> 
<h2 id="h-excellent-prospects-in-sight-for-eth-crypto">Excellent Prospects in Sight for ETH Crypto</h2> 
<p>The expected improvements to the Ethereum ecosystem should <strong>strengthen its position in the crypto market</strong>. According to data, the network’s revenue growth over the last twelve months in the third quarter of 2023 was 10.32%. The quarterly growth rate of 12.57% during the same period highlights a <strong>robust upward trend</strong>.</p> 
<p>The upgrade could further boost <strong>revenue growth</strong> due to increased network efficiency and reduced gas costs. Notably, the ETH crypto is priced close to its 52-week high, at 99.32% of its maximum value. This seems to indicate strong investor confidence. The next release of Ethereum’s financial results, set for February 1, 2024, will provide more insight into the financial impact of upcoming upgrades.</p>
