TechWill faster block times really fix Ethereum’s biggest market losses?

Ethereum developers are weighing EIP-8198, or Quick Slots, which could cut the block interval from 12 seconds to eight or 10 seconds without increasing per-second capacity. The proposal may speed confirmations, finality and onchain price updates, but it would give validators less processing time. Claims of lower arbitrage losses remain model-based and depend on testing, validator performance and market conditions.
