The more Ethereum L2s are used, the more revenue flows back to ETH 🔥 This "rent" is mainly paid in two forms: 1. Calldata – This is the traditional way L2s write data on Ethereum. It costs money. 2. Blobs (Data Availability) – A newer, cheaper method introduced in Ethereum upgrades. It’s like a discount storage space. Understand it in Laymen (if you care) When people use L2, it still relies on Ethereum mainnet to handle and secure the data. This means L2s pay a kind of 'rent' to Ethereum like renting space in a secure building. So the more L2s are used, the more revenue flows back to Ethereum. Right now, L2s are mostly using the cheaper blob option (only using ~4.3 blobs per block), but when they start using more (6+ blobs per block), prices will go up automatically.
