Vitalik Buterin, co-founder of Ethereum, released the latest blog "Multi-dimensional Gas Pricing". It is mentioned that Gas integrates multiple types of "effort", mainly including: raw computing (e.g. ADD, MULTIPLY), read and write Ethereum storage (e.g. SSTORE, SLOAD, ETH transfer), data bandwidth, the cost of ZK-SNARK proof to generate blocks. EIP-4844 introduces multi-dimensional pricing for the first time in Ethereum, adding a dedicated blob data area and setting independent prices and limits for it. This improvement has reduced the cost of Rollup by 100 times, increased the transaction volume by more than 3 times, and only slightly increased the theoretical maximum block size. In addition, Vitalik also proposed two solutions to achieve multi-dimensional gas pricing:
1. It is simpler to set a resource cap per transaction, that is, the gas of each transaction is priced at the larger value of the data and computing resources consumed, as recommended by EIP-7623.
2. The ideal but more complex solution would be to establish a dynamic adjustment mechanism similar to EIP-1559 for each resource.
Vitalik emphasized that the introduction of multi-dimensional execution gas would introduce some complexity at the EVM level, but the trade-off is worth it in order to safely increase the scalability of Ethereum L1. The community also needs to further explore more elegant designs in terms of the economy and development friendliness of the solution.
