Episode notes

With pro-dank sharding, we'll have 10x improvement on cost and then obviously with upsizing them, I get more so. But you also have to think about it in the context of supply and demand. So again, it all depends on supply and demand as a whole. It's like 10 cents per dollar that you're currently paying. The surge really focuses around actually creating this scalable environment to build on.

In this week's episode of 0xResearch, Blockworks Research analyst Westie joins us to discuss Ethereum's roadmap. We start with the Shanghai upgrade, how the ETH withdrawal queue will work, what this means for ETH sell pressure and if we will see a rise in ETH staking rates. We then go deep, real deep, into Ethereum's long-term roadmap. This includes distributed validator technology, single secret leader elections, single slot finality and more! If you want to know what's coming and how Ethereum will scale to a billion users, this one's for you.
