EIP 4844 uses KZG commitments to commit to this data so that it is like we have a proof much like you could use local trees for state and traditional blockchains or Ethereum right now. And then later on, if anything goes wrong with the rollup, the rollup can prove things about this data. So these blobs make this data available to everyone. The idea behind proto-dank sharding, also known as EIP 4844, is that we have a bunch of data next to the ETH chain that is broken up into blobs. But from the chain's perspective, we don't really know what's in them. It's just an arbitrary amount of
In this week's episode, Anna Rose and Kobi Gurkan chat with Carl and Trent from the Ethereum Foundation, covering many topics such as their work on the KZG Ceremony and how this is different from the previous trusted setups we have covered. The group takes a deep dive into trusted setups, discussing what they are for, how they have been run and how the setup is going so far. They also discuss Proto-Danksharding and EIP-4844 - a novel way to organize data logistics for Ethereum.
