Ethereum's Pectra upgrade (May 2025) increased blob capacity, lowering L2 gas fees to $0.001/transaction. This spurred DeFi growth (e.g., Base's net revenue up 98%) and ETH staking (L2s now hold 75% of RWA tokens). Long-term, cheaper scaling attracts enterprise adoption (e.g., BlackRock's BUIDL fund on XBIT), reinforcing ETH's utility. However, node storage demands (projected 100GB by 2026) may centralize infrastructure. If L2s achieve 100k TPS, Ethereum could dominate cross-chain finance, reshaping competition with Solana and Cosmos.
