Ethereum Pectra Upgrade: Scaling, Staking, and Smart Accounts

This week we break down Ethereum’s Pectra upgrade — the biggest change since the Merge — and unpack what its 11 EIPs actually mean for Layer 2 fees, wallet UX, and the future of staking on Ethereum.

- How Pectra supercharges scaling: higher L1 gas limits, blob space expansion (EIP-7691), and the economic “shove” away from expensive call data (EIP-7623) that’s pushing rollups toward sub‑cent transactions.

- The “iPhone moment” for wallets with EIP-7702: one-click transaction batching, paying gas in ERC-20s, temporary smart account features — and the very real new attack vectors that have already led to six-figure losses.

- The staking engine overhaul: 64x higher max effective balance (EIP-7251), near‑instant validator activation (EIP-6110), safer trustless exits via cold keys (EIP-7002), and the early post-upgrade data showing validator consolidation and cheaper blob fees.
