Yi Lihua: Ethereum Fusaka upgrade caused blob base fees to surge by 15 million times.

2025-12-05 15:19

Odaily Planet Daily reports that Liquid Capital published an article on the X platform stating: "The Ethereum Fusaka upgrade caused a 15 million-fold surge in blob base fees. The core reason is the addition of a 'minimum guarantee mechanism' for blob fees in EIP-7918. Previously, blob fees had no minimum limit and were consistently stuck at 1 wei (almost free), resulting in nodes bearing costs such as KZG verification without reasonable returns. After the upgrade, blob fees must be ≥ 1/15.258 of the L1 execution base fee, directly anchoring to real network costs. This design allows prices to reflect actual resource consumption (preventing L2 from occupying network resources for free) and can regulate blob traffic and prevent congestion through price fluctuations. At the same time, PeerDAS technology increases blob storage capacity. In addition, blob fees are included in the ETH burning mechanism, which is estimated to burn up to 8 times more ETH in the future, potentially contributing 30-50% of the total burned amount by 2026 (depending on the growth of L2 transaction volume)."
