<a href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/what-is-ethereum-history-and-beginners-guide/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ethereum (ETH)</a> developers introduce a new Ethereum Improvement Proposal, EIP-7732, to offset the challenges of inefficiencies while revolutionizing the block validation process and enhancing the speed of the blockchain.&nbsp; 
According to our review of this <a href="https://coinpaper.com/4733/ethereum-developers-propose-eip-7732-to-boost-blockchain-efficiency" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">comprehensive proposal</a>, EIP-7732 would bifurcate the block validation process into distinct consensus (consensus proposer) and execution phases (execution proposer) using an approach known as Enshrined Proposer-Builder Separation (EPBS). 
Per our research, the consensus proposer would control the selection of the execution proposer which would then produce a valid block consisting of payment or block hash for the consensus proposer. In so doing, the functionality of the blockchain would be greatly optimized to meet the needs of the growing user base.&nbsp; 
<h3 id="strong-the-need-for-this-proposal-strong">The Need For This Proposal&nbsp;</h3> 
Over the years, delays and inefficiencies have been a gross challenge within the Ethereum network triggered by the need for validators to perform both consensus and execution tasks. To address this, the proposed validation upgrade would enable validators to concentrate on immediate consensus validation and defer execution validation without compromising network performance or security. On top of this, an effective exchange would be encouraged between builders and proposers.&nbsp; 
<blockquote>
 Additionally, the proposal advocates for a trust-free exchange between builders and proposers, ensuring payment and the inclusion of valid blocks without the need for middleware. This aspect is crucial in simplifying the block validation process and enhancing the overall user experience on the Ethereum network.
</blockquote> 
Prior to this exciting development, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin reinstated the importance of fast transaction confirmation times to the average blockchain user. Commenting on this, he pointed out the considerable reduction of transaction confirmation times to between 5-20 seconds following the successful implementation of the EIP-1559.&nbsp;

Amid the backdrop of the validation upgrade, the supremacy of the Ethereum blockchain in terms of revenue height has drastically been reduced as token launchpad Pump.fun amasses $2 million in daily revenue against Ethereum’s $1.91 million. According to experts, Pump.fun’s historic milestone hinges on the Solana blockchain which has relatively low transaction costs compared to Ethereum.&nbsp; 
Ethereum’s native token ETH, has also been severely affected by the ongoing market pullback, causing the asset to lose 10.42% of its value in just a week to fall from $3.5k to $2.8k. At press time, ETH had recorded a little gain of 0.08% in the last 24 hours, trading at $3000.&nbsp;

According to LookOnChain, the ongoing volatility puts an Ethereum whale at risk of liquidation after creating a substantial long position on the asset. Data suggests that the whale deposited 12,374 ETH ($40 million) into the Compound Protocol, and leveraged the deposit to borrow $31.4 million in stablecoins with a health rate of 1.06. With this, a price decline to $2,984 would force the long position to be liquidated.&nbsp; 
Data also discloses that another whale purchased 9,425 ETH ($30 million) via a new wallet. In addition to that, he purchased some of the popular meme coins and cryptos including BNB, <a href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/polygons-infrastructure-empowers-future-of-finance-with-asset-tokenization/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MATIC</a>, <a href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/what-is-chainlink-link/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">LINK</a>, AVAX, etc. In total, he withdrew $120 million from Binance, making Ethereum the largest single purchase in the portfolio.&nbsp;
