The Arb proposal suggests increasing the base gwei by approximately 3-5 times. Currently, the gas fee per transaction is around 0.0078-0.01. If adjusted, the daily average on-chain profit is expected to rise from the current $20,000 to about $70,000-$100,000. This would result in an annual on-chain profit of $30-45 million. Utilizing this profit instead of distributing arb tokens would significantly improve the situation. Combined with the recent staking proposal, this could lead to a complete reversal in the economic model.
