#以太坊 Pectra 升级 The Ethereum upgrade is imminent. Can the Pectra upgrade become Ethereum's "savior"?
Core reforms of Pectra upgrade
Pectra will significantly increase the validator staking limit from 32 Ether to 2048 Ether, simplifying the process for large stakes. This adjustment is expected to enhance on-chain liquidity and attract more institutional funds. If user experience (UX) sees substantial improvement, on-chain activity may significantly increase—this will also become a key observation point for Ethereum price trends in the second quarter.
What is the Pectra upgrade? As one of the largest updates in Ethereum's history, Pectra focuses on four major directions: Enhance staking efficiency Optimize user experience Promote the Rollup expansion roadmap Enhance decentralization features
Three major upgrade highlights
1. Staking Efficiency Revolution The current limit of a single validator at 32 ETH forces large stakers to run multiple nodes. After the implementation of EIP-7251, the upper limit of 2048 ETH will significantly reduce network load—currently, the number of active validators on Ethereum has exceeded 1.07 million (as of December 2024 data). 2. User experience leap EIP-7702 introduces innovative features such as "permission degradation": supporting conditional authorization (e.g., limiting ERC-20 transaction types or daily 2% balance expenditure) to implement a gas fee subsidy mechanism. EIP-7002 simplifies the staking withdrawal process through smart contracts.
3. The introduction of the Rollup expansion advanced PeerDAS protocol (EIP-7594) allows nodes to verify only partial data to confirm the availability of L2 Blob, further reducing gas costs.
Potential Impact on ETH Value Christine Kim, Vice President of Galaxy Research, pointed out that as the focus of Ethereum's expansion shifts to L2, the direct impact of base layer upgrades on ETH prices may weaken: "The key to driving ETH value in the future lies in the user experience and ecological prosperity of L2, rather than mainnet optimization."
Market Outlook
Despite the ongoing debate around the rollup-centric scaling strategy, upgrades such as Proto-Danksharding and Pectra demonstrate the Ethereum team's execution capabilities. As the cornerstone of DeFi and dApps, improvements in efficiency and enhanced flexibility will undoubtedly solidify its market leadership.
