Ethereum researchers are investigating the 'Block-in-Blobs' proposal (EIP-8142) to encode block execution load data into blobs. According to ChainCatcher, this approach allows validators to verify data existence through data availability sampling (DAS) without downloading the entire dataset, thereby reducing bandwidth pressure and improving scalability.
In the zkEVM context, the proposal aims to address the gap in data availability assurance that zero-knowledge proofs cannot cover. It also plans to unify execution gas and blob data usage into a single 'data gas' system. Additionally, Biconomy, in collaboration with the Ethereum Foundation, has proposed ERC-8211, which supports executing multiple operations in sequence under a single signature. This aims to reduce failed transactions and optimize the DeFi interaction experience.
