According to COINOTAG (August 27), official communications indicate the Ethereum Foundation‘s Office of Academic Affairs has partnered with Columbia University to launch a new blockchain podcast, From Whiteboard to Mainnet. The inaugural episode, released today, examines Optimal Dynamic Fees for Blockchain Resources, exploring fee-market design, protocol economics and resource allocation frameworks. The discussion summarises established academic models for dynamic fee mechanisms and outlines implications for on-chain throughput and cost predictability. This research-focused collaboration aims to provide practitioners and scholars with rigorous analysis to inform governance and fee-design decisions within the crypto ecosystem.
