Block Arrivals, Home Stakers & Bumping the blob count

Thanks for these very insightful results!

ProbeLab’s study that @samcm referred to is this one that came out yesterday: Bandwidth Availability in Ethereum: Regional Differences and Network Impacts.

I think a relevant point to this study is the number of blobs per block carried over the network currently: Bandwidth Availability in Ethereum: Regional Differences and Network Impacts. We see that in 42% of the cases (slots), there are 5-6 blobs anyway.

Although it’s not straightforward, or accurate to make a direct correlation, the network is currently carrying what the future target would be (6) in 40+% of slots and there doesn’t seem to be any disruption at all.
