Blob EIPs and Minimum Validator Requirements
By:

🔗 ethresear.ch/t/20679
Highlights:
- EIP 7623 proposes increasing the cost of call data to reduce block size, which is now feasible due to rollups using blobs instead of call data.
- EIP 7762 suggests setting a small reserve price for blobs to speed up price discovery, improving efficiency.
- EIP 7742 involves a technical adjustment to better organize blob count variables, maintaining separation of concerns between different layers.
- Concerns were raised about the bandwidth requirements for solo stakers, but the proposals could actually reduce block size, alleviating some worries.
- Lowering the minimum stake for running a node is discouraged as it could compromise network security and increase the burden of signature aggregation.

This article talks about some proposed changes to how Ethereum handles data and validators. It suggests increasing the cost of certain data to control block sizes, setting a minimum price for data blobs to speed up price changes, and making some technical adjustments to improve efficiency. There was some concern about how these changes might affect people who run their own nodes, especially those with slower internet connections. The article also discusses the idea of lowering the amount of cryptocurrency needed to run a node, but argues against it because it could make the network less secure.
