Ethereum news: Researchers are advancing EIP-8142 to reduce validator data load by encoding block execution data into blobs. Validators can verify the data through sampling, reducing bandwidth usage and enhancing scalability. The proposal also unifies execution gas and blob data into a single "data gas" system. Biconomy and the Ethereum Foundation have also proposed ERC-8211 to simplify multi-step transactions. Inflation data trends may influence how these upgrades affect network economics.

According to The Block, Ethereum researchers are exploring the "Block-in-Blobs" proposal (EIP-8142), which aims to encode block execution load data into blobs, allowing validators to verify data availability through Data Availability Sampling (DAS) without downloading the full dataset, thereby reducing bandwidth pressure and improving scalability. In zkEVM scenarios, this proposal also addresses the gap where zero-knowledge proofs cannot guarantee data availability, and it proposes unifying execution gas and blob data usage into a single "data gas" system. Additionally, Biconomy, in collaboration with the Ethereum Foundation, has proposed ERC-8211, enabling transactions to execute multiple sequential operations under a single signature, reducing failed transactions and enhancing the DeFi interaction experience.
