Introduction to Vitalik's Multi-Dimensional Execution Gas Concept

May 9, 2024

In his recent blog post on Multidimensional Gas pricing, Vitalik Buterin, the co-founder of Ethereum, introduced a new approach that integrates various types of computational efforts. This approach includes factors such as raw calculations, Ethereum storage read and write operations, data bandwidth, and the expenses related to generating ZK-SNARK proof for block production. The introduction of multi-dimensional pricing through EIP-4844 for Ethereum marks a significant development, as it is expected to substantially lower the cost of Rollup, increase transaction capacity by over 3 times, and slightly enhance the theoretical maximum block size. While Vitalik offered two proposals for implementing this multi-dimensional gas pricing mechanism, he acknowledged that it may introduce some complexity at the level of the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). However, he emphasized that this complexity is a worthwhile trade-off for ensuring the safe enhancement of Ethereum L1 scalability.
