Ethereum's Dencun Upgrade Brings Scalability Boost Closer Through Proto-Danksharding
• Ethereum's Dencun upgrade was launched on the Goerli testnet, bringing the network one step closer to implementing major scalability improvements
• Dencun introduces "proto-danksharding", which will allow Ethereum to scale to handle over 100,000 transactions per second
• Proto-danksharding aims to make transactions on Layer 2 solutions much cheaper for users
• The upgrade will be implemented via a hard fork, requiring validators to upgrade software to keep participating
• Dencun follows previous upgrades like "the merge", as Ethereum continues working to solve issues like scalability and high fees
