ChainCatcher reported that according to Cointelegraph, Nicolas Liochon, head of zkEVM Linea at Consensys, said that danksharding (EIP-4844) is expected to further reduce Rollup costs by 10%.
Proto-danksharding, also known by the Ethereum Improvement Proposal (EIP) identifier EIP-4844, aims to reduce the cost of Rollups, which typically batch off-chain transactions and data and submit computational proofs to the Ethereum blockchain. The Ethereum Foundation has not yet set an expected release date for prototype danksharding, and development and testing are still ongoing.
Compared to transactions conducted on Ethereum Layer 1, Linea offers transactions that are 15 times cheaper, but Rollup is still limited by the fact that transactions are published in the call data in Ethereum blocks. EIP-4844 will introduce data blocks that can be sent and attached to blocks. The data stored in the block cannot be accessed by the Ethereum Virtual Machine and will be deleted after a period of time, which is believed to greatly reduce transaction costs.
