EIP-4844 introduced “blob transactions” almost over a year ago, specifically aimed at significantly enhancing scalability and efficiency for layer-2 solutions like rollups. Understanding how these transactions are priced is essential for developers, users, and anyone interacting with Ethereum’s economic system. [Read More]

The challenge of space exploration isn’t just rocket science. It’s also a governance problem. And while this might sound like science fiction, it’s also a fun thought experiment about how decentralised governance could scale—literally—to the stars. Imagine a future where a consortium of investors builds a spacecraft to mine asteroids.... [Read More]

In traditional systems, trust often requires synchronous real-time interactions, centralized authorities, or constant availability. Ethereum, however, introduced a new model: asynchronous trust. [Read More]

“The essence of science: ask an impertinent question, and you are on the way to a pertinent answer.” — Jacob Bronowski [Read More]

Feedback mechanisms are the backbone of resilient, scalable systems. In distributed systems, active monitoring and backpressure ensures the system’s overall stability. Similarly, horizontal scalability relies on dynamic monitoring to provision resources in response to demand. Dynamic auto-scaling and spot pricing are all standard these days. It wasn’t always the case;... [Read More]
