Here's how Ethereum handles things right now:

Users are locked in a competition for blockspace.
Gas fees spike unpredictably.
User experience takes a hit.
Applications get forced to throttle their operations.

A new blockspace reservation model changes this:

Applications pre-reserve blockspace ahead of time.
No more bidding wars driving fees up.
Gas becomes predictable and stable.

The shift from auction-based competition to advance reservation could fundamentally reshape how dapps operate on-chain.

Oh my God, finally someone has solved the pain point of gas fees. The reservation model is truly a stroke of genius.

A reserved model sounds good, but can it really be implemented? It feels like another ideal scenario.

This reserved model sounds good, but can it really be implemented? It feels like another case of vaporware.

It should have been like this earlier; who can tolerate such fierce gas fees?

After research and analysis, this reserved model sounds good, but it depends on how the project team implements it. Truly gas-reducing solutions have been everywhere for a long time. The key is still the tokenomics design; don't turn it into another capital pool.

Coming up with a new concept to rescue the market again? Reserving block space in advance... To put it simply, it's just switching from an auction system to a monthly subscription system. It sounds good, but when it actually gets implemented, who will bear the liquidity risk of this system... The early buyers who bottomed out will definitely make a huge profit, but later entrants will have to carry the burden.

Reserving a model sounds good, but can it really be implemented? I've heard too many "revolutionary" solutions before.

Sounds good, but could the reserved model itself become a new attack vector? Locking the space in advance—what if reentrancy or overflow vulnerabilities appear in the reservation mechanism?
