Ethereum Dencun upgrade has been officially deployed on the main network of Ethereum at 9pm last night on March 13, the standard time of Greenwich, which is at 9pm.We can find the first transaction with the first BLOB data after the upgrade (the core point of this upgrade, and the later) is: https://etherscan.io/tx/0x1e3763C5200CD39E70D498BE78FA3DEFCA23429F6BB22D714315C
We can see the Blob data with it. After we decoding, we can see the from Astaria.xyz with love, Joe Delong, Justin Bram, Wesley Rafuse, Justin Greenberg, Greg Curtis, Marco Kaul, Kaloyan Mitev, CH ase hawes, Tim CLANCY, obviously this is a tribute from Astaria.
Next, let’s take a look at what the Dencun upgrade has been upgraded.
The core of the Dencun upgrade is EIP4844, that is, it supports the blob information contained in the above transaction, and of course there are other upgrades, but this article focuses on the EIP4844.
Regarding EIP4844, the specific specifications can refer to https://eips.ethereum.org/eips/eip-4844.The details of the specifications are complicated, and it also involves some other relevant specifications, and the specific details will not be expanded.Next, let everyone understand what the specification is, and what changes can bring to Ethereum.
To put it simply, EIP4844 allows Ethereum blocks to support a newly defined BLOB data. You can understand the temporary data of BLOB data, which will only only store on Ethereum for 18 days.I think it should be a question for most people: “The data on the blockchain cannot be changed and cannot be deleted. This is right as the core value of the blockchain, but how can there be more and more data in this waymanage?”
Obviously, BLOB is to partially solve this problem, because in fact, many data is not necessary to store on Ethereum for a long time. For example, data generated by L2, as long as it reached a consensus on Ethereum, wait for a while to accept the “fraud certificate” for a period of time.Challenges, then these data have no significance of existence.
BLOB allows to open a temporary space to store temporary data like this when initiating the transaction. Obviously, the cost of temporary data storage will be lower, and the corresponding design of the GAS will be lower.The cost is reduced.This is of great significance to the many L2 on Ethereum and Ethereum. For example, I compared the differences between the difference between the GAS difference between the L2 Starknet before and after the DENCUN upgrade.

Before upgrading
It is also a STRK transfer. It consumes 0.467 STRK before the upgrade, and only 0.005 STRK is required after upgrading.Of course, this data will be affected by other various factors. Here are only for reference. For more specific data, you can follow more relevant reports.
Let’s take a look at the embodiment of BLOB on Ethereum. In a relatively new block 19430289, we can see Blob -related information. 128 KIB corresponds to 1 BLOBS, and Gas Price is only 1 wei.
After entering the BLOB transaction point, you will find that it is StarkNet’s transaction:
The corresponding data can also be seen:

In all the transactions currently upgraded, tx.type = 3 (blob tx) accounts for only 0.3%, but we can seeThis upgrade has brought immediate results for L2, and it is also of great significance to Ethereum. It is believed that with the continuous development of blockchain technology, the performance and cost of blockchain can continue to improve.It is getting closer to us a day.
