In the first week after the Ethereum Fusaka upgrade went live, several key metrics are worth noting.

The number of block blobs has remained stable at 6. According to the roadmap, this will be gradually increased to 14 by January 7 next year, so the scaling progress is proceeding as planned. With the implementation of PeerDAS technology, node storage pressure has been reduced by 80%, and the gas limit per transaction is locked at 16,777,216, effectively closing the door to DoS attacks.

More importantly, the EIP-7918 base fee mechanism has started to take effect—previously, blob fees once dropped to an awkward 1 wei, but now they are gradually aligning with L2 execution costs. Starting from December, we can see the ETH deflation logic being restored, which means the underlying architecture is solid for large-scale ecosystem expansion in the future.

The implementation of technical indicators is just the first step; the real test lies in whether the Layer 2 ecosystem can take advantage of this wave of scaling benefits.
