đ Ethereum speeds up! Block times cut to 8 seconds? âł
Ethereum's new proposal, EIP-7781, aims to slash block times from 12 seconds to 8, boosting throughput by 50%! 𧩠Launched by Ben Adams on Oct 5, this upgrade will supercharge #Layer2s rollups, lower fees, and increase blob capacity, all while saving users roughly $100M annually. đ€
Though Ethereum devs are cheering, solo #stakers worry about the increased hardware demands and decentralization risks. đ»âïž Still, #Justin Drake and #VitalikButerin are on board. Could this be the next big step for Ethereumâs efficiency?
