The Ethereum Network’s The next major chain upgrade, called “Fusaka”, can be large for users as it can lower Layer-2 and validation costs. So far, Ethereum developers have agreed to include a technical change, “peerdas”, designed to improve data availability.
Peerdas, which is responsible for sampling of peer data availability, would allow validators to download partial data from the lumps instead of full cloth to validate if data has been published in the network. Peer data accessibility can reduce stock-2 transaction costs and benefit institutions that operate validators at Ethereum blockchain. “Peerdas is extremely important because we want to help Layer-2S scale,” said Parithosh Jayanti, a devops engineer at the Ethereum Foundation. “Peerdas allows us to encounter the lump limit considerably.”

Ethereum has even surpassed Alibaba and Coca-Cola to become the 39th largest asset in the world by market value, according to 8marketcap. At press time, ETH’s market value was over $ 308 billion. However, Coca-Cola’s market value is $ 303.5 billion, with its shares trading to about $ 70. Alibaba’s market value is $ 303.7 billion and its share is now about $ 125.
Ethereum Fusaka upgrade is scheduled to go live at the end of 2025. Developers say it will eventually contain a package of additional upgrades in addition to Peerdas. However, Ethereum developers are notorious to delay their upgrades. The Pecta upgrade, for example, was initially set to be released at the end of 2024 but was postponed to the first quarter of 2025. After further delays, it was finally released this month, fortunately with enough hype to drive the ETH price high.
