Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin proposed a new three-stage scalability vision in his latest blog post, focusing on strengthening the L1 underlying network to improve transaction processing capacity. In the short term, block verification will be optimized through parallel validation and ePBS upgrades; in the medium term, Gas fees will be restructured to enhance long-term storage costs; and in the long term, zero-knowledge proofs and Blob data expansion will be relied upon to fundamentally improve the verification architecture, ensuring the sustainable scalability of the Ethereum ecosystem.

This mechanism aims to increase holder rewards and reduce circulating supply. Currently, the UNI price has recovered approximately 9%.

Uniswap token holders will vote this Thursday to decide whether to activate the protocol fee switch, covering multiple Layer 2 blockchains.

Following the proposal, the UNI price has increased by 9%. The voting will end on March 4th.
