VITALIK ON MULTI-DIMENSIONAL GAS PRICING

Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

Vitalik Buterin discusses how Ethereum has traditionally used gas to manage computational resources (computation, storage, data transmission, and cryptographic proof generation) and represent them as a cost metric. He argues that this approach has some limitations given it doesn't effectively describe the limits of each computational resource. By shifting towards a "multi-dimensional gas system", Ethereum will be able to better align costs with the actual demands and capacities of these computational resources.
