Odaily Planet Daily news: Liquid Capital posted on X stating, “After the Ethereum Fusaka upgrade, the blob base fee skyrocketed by 15 million times. The core reason is that EIP-7918 introduced a ‘minimum fee mechanism’ for blobs—previously, there was no minimum limit on blob fees, so they were stuck at 1 wei (almost free) for a long time, resulting in nodes shouldering the costs of KZG verification and more without reasonable returns. After the upgrade, blob fees must be ≥ 1/15.258 of the L1 execution base fee, directly anchoring fees to the real network cost. This design allows prices to reflect actual resource consumption (preventing L2s from using network resources for free), and also uses price fluctuations to regulate blob traffic and prevent congestion, while PeerDAS technology increases blob storage capacity; this

PANews, December 5—According to Jintou, Joanne Hsu, Director of the University of Michigan's Consumer Survey, stated that the preliminary December consumer sentiment index rose by 2.3 points to 53.3, an increase within the margin of error.

Looking ahead, one-year inflation expectations fell from 4.5% in November to 4.1% in December, the lowest level since January 2025.
