Definition ∞ Proto-Danksharding is an intermediate step towards full sharding on the Ethereum network, designed to improve data availability. It introduces “blobs” for transaction data, which are more cost-effective for layer-two solutions to post data. This enhancement aims to significantly reduce transaction fees for users of scaling networks.
Context ∞ Proto-Danksharding is a critical development in Ethereum’s scaling roadmap, with its implementation marking a substantial upgrade to the network’s data handling capacity. The current focus is on the successful integration and testing of this EIP (Ethereum Improvement Proposal) to ensure its stability and effectiveness. Observers are keenly anticipating its impact on layer-two transaction costs and the subsequent potential for increased dApp usage and broader network accessibility.
