The Ethereum Dencun upgrade will be activated on three testnets in early 2024, and the Ethereum ecosystem is gradually realizing second-layer rollup fee reduction and transaction acceleration. Currently, EIP-4844 has been activated on the Goerli test network with Dencun and supports proto-danksharding.
Nebojsa Urosevic, co-founder of Ethereum development platform Tenderly, said that the Dencun upgrade may reduce the cost of Rollup transactions to up to 1/10 of the current cost, depending on blob space requirements, and the L2 network will be able to store data on L1 more efficiently, Blob It is deleted approximately every two weeks, which is enough time for the L2 to manage, retrieve and validate the data, making blobs cheaper than typical transaction call data stored indefinitely.

According to previous news on January 11, Ethereum plans to activate the Dencun upgrade on the Goerli test network on January 17. If the Goerli testnet upgrade goes smoothly, the Dencun upgrade will be activated on the Sepolia and Holesky testnets in the next few weeks. Mainnet activation will be scheduled once Dencun is running smoothly on all three testnets.
