Ethereum latest technological developments: The Blob Pressure Optimization Scheme BPO2 has officially launched on the mainnet. Based on real-time on-chain data, the scope of this upgrade is quite significant—the Blob target value (Target) has been directly increased from the previous setting to 14 per block, and the maximum capacity (Max) has also been raised to 21.

What does this mean? Simply put, Ethereum's throughput potential has been further unleashed. The Blob mechanism was originally designed to optimize data costs for Layer 2 networks, and this parameter adjustment effectively provides more data storage space. For Layer 2 solutions, transaction costs should improve.

The BPO (Blob-Parameter-Only) upgrade series has been continuously iterated, aiming to maximize Ethereum's scalability while ensuring network security. The implementation of BPO2 also reflects the community's ongoing focus on performance optimization.

Adjusting parameters again, this time directly from 7 to 14. Are gas fees really going to be cheaper, or has it become a new battleground for arbitrageurs?

Blob is changing things up again; this time, it's doubling directly. L2's Gwei fees should be relieved now, right?

Blob from 14 to 21, now layer2's gas fee should be able to relax.

Oh wow, 14 blobs launched directly. This time L2 should be more comfortable. --- Wait, is security really not an issue? Feels like the parameters are set too aggressively. --- Another "optimization," but in the end, the gas fees are still clogged up. --- With a capacity limit of 21, it should finally be Arbitrum's turn to be cheaper. --- BPO2 is coming. I'm concerned about when the gas can really decrease. --- Looks good, but I bet five bucks that the gas fees will still skyrocket this week. --- Finally, someone remembers L2, but will these changes affect node pressure? --- Layer-by-layer optimization, just to keep us trading, right? --- Data cost improvements sound good, but how much can we actually save in reality? --- The parameter stacking game continues. Let's wait and see the results.

14 to 21, now Layer2 can breathe a sigh of relief --- BPO2 goes live with full capacity, this is what true throughput looks like --- Wait, will the costs really decrease, or are we about to cut another wave of retail investors --- Ethereum is quietly working on this again --- Parameters are being adjusted so frequently, the community is really trying to find the ceiling for expansion --- Blob increased from 14 to 21, it seems Ethereum hasn't reached its peak yet --- Layer 2 gas fees should be cheaper, don’t just look good on paper

Blob skyrocketed from 14 to 21. Now the layer2 gas fees can breathe a sigh of relief, but I'm still worried about whether there will be any new surprises. This upgrade sounds good, but the real test is whether the mainnet can run stably. Another parameter adjustment, it feels like Ethereum is constantly fixing and patching... The increase in throughput sounds great, but will transaction costs really decrease? I still see that L2 fees are still ridiculously high. BPO2 is online, so is BPO3 next? If we keep optimizing like this, it might be the Year of the Monkey before we see results.

14 target values, 21 maximum capacities. The increase in these numbers is indeed significant, but will the L2 gas fees really drop? I see that the arbitrator side is still flaring up.
