What we really need? A solid trustless gas futures market running onchain. Think of it like a prediction market betting on BASEFEE.

People keep asking me this: "Sure, fees are cheap right now, but what happens two years down the road?" They're skeptical when I explain that gaslimit expansion from BAL, plus ePBS implementation, and eventually ZK-EVM rollout will keep things affordable. The real question is — do they actually trust these projections?

Without a proper futures market, we're just throwing forecasts into the void. An onchain mechanism could give real price discovery and let users hedge against future gas spikes. That's the missing piece.

The gas futures market sounds pretty interesting, but honestly, who would actually use it?

The idea of a gas futures market is pretty good, but I'm not sure about the liquidity.

Bro, the idea of gas futures is truly brilliant, but is it really doable? --- To put it simply, it's just a gambler's mentality right now; no one dares to really bet. --- Damn, another "what will happen in two years" question... I don't know either. --- Onchain prediction market sounds awesome, but can it actually have liquidity? --- Rather than futures, wouldn't it be more practical to just make a gas option? --- Isn't this just betting on whether ePBS and ZK-EVM will actually deploy? --- Price discovery and all that are secondary; the key is whether anyone will actually play. --- Sounds good, but you'll have to prevent whale manipulation. --- Why does it have to be trustless? Can't a centralized market work too? --- Betting on BASEFEE, that's a bit novel... just depends on whether there's any volume.

Ha, it's the same old argument again... but it does make some sense. --- A gas futures market sounds good, just worried it might be another pie in the sky. --- The core issue is still trust. Predictions and reality are always worlds apart. --- Trustless sounds nice, but who actually dares to take the risk when it goes live? --- I just want to know when this thing will launch... is it just talk for now? --- There is indeed a lack of price discovery mechanisms, but are all these on-chain things really reliable? --- Who can accurately predict the fees two years from now? I, for one, don't believe it. --- ePBS, ZK-EVM, they sound impressive, but actually landing them is a whole different story.
