🚀 **Vitalik Buterin Wants More Blobs!**
- Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin is pushing to increase Ethereum’s "blob count" to boost network scalability and support layer-2 protocols.
- Blobs are special data storage areas introduced by EIP-4844, designed to temporarily store large amounts of data, mainly benefiting L2 rollups.
- Currently, Ethereum targets 3 blobs per block with a max of 6. Buterin suggests upping this to 4 and 8, respectively.
- EIP-7623 aims to reduce block size and increase blob count, ensuring L2s can post data efficiently.
- Coinbase L2 Base creator Jesse Pollak supports the move, calling the growth "exponential." 🚀
