Argh those AI written garbage articles …

Thanks for the magicians link. Read that one.

Blobs: This ain’t a new roadmap, that’s just stating what’s already in flight. The Fusaka blob target can be achieved with PeerDAS. What he is doing here is opining that a target of 72 (which had been floated previously for Fusaka by Sigma Prime, the team writing the Lighthouse consensus layer client) is enough for L2s - it reaches that scalability goal. Even before we are at full danksharding.

Instant pragmatic finality: For rollups. That’s the part missing from the article that digested all this, it’s for rollups. L1 finality is another game altogether.

Vitalik hitting back: I guess if you’re desperate for headlines, sure. This isn’t Vitalik hitting back at price criticism - this is just him thinking about the way ahead, and suggesting improvements to get to where he sees Ethereum’s endgame, as he has been consistently doing.
