Etymology: Proto-Danksharding is known as after two Ethereum researchers, Dankrad Feist and Proto Lambda, who proposed the change. It’s becoming as a result of Proto Danksharding is important for the complete rollout of Danksharding — which is a number of years away and takes the thought of simplifying information storage additional. Additionally, though the time period “sharding” is within the identify, neither Danksharding nor Proto-Danksharding is a standard solution to “shard” — or break up — a database into smaller elements as recognized in laptop science, which was the unique plan for getting Ethereum to scale. In a way, Dencun’s introduction of Proto-Danksharding is a severe deviation from the unique roadmap for Ethereum, chosen as a result of it’s simpler to implement.
