Deneb is a consensus-layer upgrade containing a number of features. Including:
- EIP-4788: Beacon block root in the EVM
- EIP-4844: Shard Blob Transactions scale data-availability of Ethereum in a simple, forwards-compatible manner
- EIP-7044: Perpetually Valid Signed Voluntary Exits
- EIP-7045: Increase Max Attestation Inclusion Slot
- EIP-7514: Add Max Epoch Churn Limit

uint64(6) |
[New in Deneb:EIP4844] maximum number of blobs in a single block limited by MAX_BLOB_COMMITMENTS_PER_BLOCK |
Note: The blob transactions are packed into the execution payload by the EL/builder with their corresponding blobs being independently transmitted
and are limited by MAX_BLOB_GAS_PER_BLOCK // GAS_PER_BLOB. However the CL limit is independently defined by MAX_BLOBS_PER_BLOCK.
