Ethereum Improvement Proposal Aims to Increase Throughput by 50 Percent

A new Ethereum Improvement Proposal (EIP-7781) aims to enhance Ethereum’s throughput by reducing slot time from 12 to 8 seconds, potentially increasing transaction capacity by 50%. While this could improve efficiency for decentralized exchanges, it may also raise bandwidth demands and impact decentralization, particularly for solo stakers. Community members are divided on the proposal’s feasibility and implications for network stability.
