According to TechFlow, Base published a blog post detailing its expansion roadmap for 2024. Since its launch, Base has increased the gas target per block from 2.5 Mgas/s to 10 Mgas/s, increasing throughput by 4 times.

Starting from the end of September, Base promises to increase the gas target by 1 Mgas/s per week, which may be accelerated to 2 Mgas/s per week in the future.

Base is actively involved in the development of PeerDAS (Peer Data Availability Sampling) as part of Ethereum’s upcoming Pectra upgrade. The Base team calls for a significant increase in blob capacity while activating PeerDAS to support larger scale expansion. To ensure fair compensation across the network, Base recommends increasing the minimum blob fee or implementing a new blob data charging mechanism.
