01 THE MACHINE READ
WHY IT MATTERS.
Higher gas-per-block capacity could raise Ethereum throughput and fee economics, but sampled blocks used under half the allowance, so real demand is unproven.
Scaling test lifts capacity, demand still unverified
CATALYST TO WATCH
Mainnet rollout or sustained block utilization
MAIN RISK
Low utilization means capacity gains go unused
FULL DISPATCH
The Sepolia rehearsal has raised its processing budget more than threefold, but sampled blocks used less than half that allowance.
02 THE STORY SO FAR
