Fusaka adjusts the foundation for Ethereum\u2019s Layer 1 and Layer 2 interaction. The main purpose is to lower Layer 2 transaction fees, expand data storage capacity, and smooth out the use of rollups, without adding pressure to individual network nodes.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Ethereum Introduces True Data Sharding<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span>One of the central additions in the upgrade is Peer Data Availability Sampling (PeerDAS) through EIP-7594, which <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crypto-news-flash.com\/ethereum-reclaims-3k-fusaka-upgrade\/\">allows<\/a> validators to verify only parts of large data blobs instead of downloading the entire dataset. It is expected to have a strong impact on how rollups like Arbitrum and Optimism operate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The increased data availability leads to lower rollup costs. Ethereum developers estimate that fees on Layer 2s could drop by 40 to 60 percent. This cost reduction is made possible because rollups now have greater room to publish their data, supported by larger blob capacity and improved throughput introduced by Fusaka.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin highlighted the inclusion of PeerDAS in Fusaka, describing it as a breakthrough for Ethereum. \u201cPeerDAS in Fusaka is significant because it literally is sharding,\u201d he said. He added that Ethereum is now finalizing blocks without requiring a full data view from any one validator, calling it \u201cclient-side probabilistic verification\u201d rather than consensus by vote.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">PeerDAS in Fusaka is significant because it literally is sharding.<\/p>\n<p>Ethereum is coming to consensus on blocks without requiring any single node to see more than a tiny fraction of the data.

This change allows more transactions to be processed per block. Developers have set a long-term goal of 150 million, aiming to improve network responsiveness. To avoid single transactions clogging the system, a gas cap per transaction has been enforced through EIP-7825.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Another change involves the Blob Parameter Only (BPO) fork switch. Introduced through EIP-7892, it allows smaller and more targeted blob capacity updates in the future. This design avoids the need for complete hard forks every time the network wants to grow its blob capacity. As <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crypto-news-flash.com\/ethereum-scaling-fusaka-upgrade\/\">we reported<\/a>, the first BPO fork is already scheduled for December 9, 2025, followed by another on January 7, 2026.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Vitalik, however, pointed out that while PeerDAS marks real progress, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crypto-news-flash.com\/what-is-ethereum-a-complete-history-and-beginners-guide\/\">Ethereum<\/a> still lacks full sharding in a few areas. First, Ethereum L1 can\u2019t yet handle transaction scaling beyond constant-factor improvements. Second, block building still depends on centralized builders having full access to data.
