Researchers have developed a multi-agent reinforcement learning environment to study the EIP-4844 blob fee market in Ethereum. This model simulates how independent, self-interested rollups make decisions about posting data, aiming to understand if they can self-organize around the target of three blobs per block. The study found that even without explicit coordination, these agents tend to settle near the target, with supply remaining stable across a significant demand range. The research also indicates that an external costless option for data posting can reduce fees by an order of magnitude while maintaining the target supply. AI
