Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

EIP-4844, an Ethereum improvement proposal introducing proto-danksharding, is expected to impact leading optimistic rollups on Ethereum. EIP-4844 adds blobs, raw byte strings attached to transactions, to store additional data alongside transactions temporarily. This separation of storage and computation fees allows for a more dynamic fee market, enabling a tenfold reduction in fees on leading L2s like Arbitrum and Optimism.
