🟣 Why do blobs expire, and why is archiving them important?

Let’s dive in 👇

Ethereum is the world computer. The universal platform for cryptocurrencies, blockchain apps, stablecoins, and decentralized technologies.

The pioneer blockchain explorer dedicated to navigate and visualize shard blob transactions.

1️⃣ Blob data is temporary by design to keep @ethereum efficient, handling large data volumes without slowing down. Their short lifespan reduces transaction costs and keeps storage manageable.

3️⃣ Archiving turns short-lived data into a lasting resource, ensuring that projects relying on data continuity and historical insights can access archived blob data. This supports a transparent, decentralized Ethereum ecosystem. 🌐

🤝 Blobs may be ephemeral, but their impact is lasting.

2️⃣ Blobs capture Ethereum’s ongoing evolution. Archiving them preserves blockchain history, allowing anyone to access and verify past transactions—even after they expire on-chain.
