Ethereum Eyes 3.3x Gas Limit Boost to 200M in Glamsterdam Upgrade

  • —Glamsterdam activates on Hoodi on October 26, 2026, at 17:42 UTC
  • —Gas limit rises from 60M to 200M, a roughly 3.3x increase
  • —Upgrade includes enshrined proposer-builder separation, block-level access lists and gas pricing changes
  • —23 EIPs are under consideration for Hegotá, headlined by FOCIL and Frame Transactions
Why it matters: A higher gas limit expands Ethereum L1 throughput and could ease fee pressure, a key step in its scaling roadmap.
