1.Galaxy: Current status of Ethereum Blob and the Blob market in the post-Pectra era

On May 7, 2025, the Ethereum Pectra upgrade was launched on the mainnet. Among the implemented Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIPs), EIP-7691 increased the target number of blobs and the maximum number of blobs per block. In last year's Dencun upgrade, EIP-4844 (formerly Danksharding) introduced Blobs to provide dedicated data publishing space for Rollup. Since the launch of Dencun, the Ethereum network has maintained a target number and maximum number of blobs of 3 blobs per block; calculated at a data size of 128kb per blob, this means that the data capacity transmitted through Blobs per day is about 5.5GB. After the Pectra upgrade, the target and maximum number of blobs per block increased to 6 and 9 respectively, and the blob data capacity increased to about 8.15GB per day. This change has an impact on the blob market, rollups, and Ethereum validators, with the increase reducing the scarcity of the fixed amount of blob space that rollups compete for and increasing the network's data availability (DA) capacity through blobs. The following explores the impact of the Pectra upgrade's changes to Ethereum blob parameters on the blob market, rollups and their users, Ethereum validators, and the ETH supply.  Click to read
