Ethereum's Glamsterdam test gets last-minute Prysm fix before capacity jump
- —Prysm 7.2.1 shipped late Monday with the 200 million gas limit built in
- —The Glamsterdam test on Sepolia activates at 13:53:36 UTC on Oct. 6
- —The gas limit rises from 60 million to 200 million, more than triple
- —The setting applies only to Sepolia; Glamsterdam is not live on mainnet
Why it matters: The test will show whether validators can handle blocks more than three times larger, shaping Ethereum's future throughput and fees.
