**Scroll Airdrop Sends Blob Fees Skyrocketing! 🚀**
- A wild airdrop for Ethereum's new L2 network, Scroll, sent blob fees soaring to $4.52 on Oct. 22. That's the third time blobs have gotten pricey since Ethereum's Dencun upgrade in March.
- Crypto analyst Hildobby blames the spike on Scroll's governance token SCR, which hit Binance and airdropped to users.
- Blob fees hit a four-month high, but quickly retraced to near zero as L2 activity slowed.
- Ethereum devs are working on EIP-7742 to dynamically manage blob gas, aiming to boost scalability.
