We have performed the switch back to calldata. Users should observe a more stable safe head, as well as lower fees. We will switch back to blobs once the L1 congestion subsides.

Blob data availability fees returned to stability. Batch submission is operational and utilizing blobs again. We will continue to monitor the L1 data fees for changes.
