Sepolia blocks use 26–46% of new 200M gas limit after Glamsterdam

  • —Glamsterdam activated on Sepolia on October 6, raising the block gas limit to nearly 200M
  • —More than 25 test blocks used 52–92 million gas, or 26–46% of the limit
  • —EIP-8037 and EIP-8038 reprice data creation and access costs
  • —In a six-minute test all 32 blocks were proposed and 99.97% of testnet stake voted to finalize
Why it matters: The tests show whether the network can handle a higher gas limit, which shapes Ethereum's scaling path and the timing of Glamsterdam on mainnet.
