Ethereum's Fusaka upgrade just dropped, and honestly? It's all about those backend improvements.
The real winners here are Layer 2 networks. Arbitrum and Base users should see transaction fees drop anywhere from 40% to 60%. Not bad for a routine upgrade.
Meanwhile, the block gas limit jumped from 36 million straight to 60 million—that's a solid 66% boost in network throughput. More space, more transactions, same old Ethereum, just faster.

Gas limit doubled, but what about the real risks? Is no one discussing new attack vectors for reentrancy under high throughput?

Those L2 people are about to take off again, really makes me jealous.

NGL, this upgrade sounds pretty good, but is the 40-60% reduction in fees real or is it just more hype?

L2 is the real deal. This upgrade directly cuts transaction fees by more than half. Arbitrum users must be thrilled.

L2 is really taking off this time. The fees on Base and Arb are about to drop sharply—finally, it won't be so painful anymore.

A 40% to 60% drop in fees—this upgrade was worth the wait.
