Ethereum Prepares a 233% Gas Limit Increase
Ethereum prepares to increase its gas limit from 60 to 200 million per block as part of the Glamsterdam upgrade. This increase represents a factor of 3.3, not 33, but it currently only applies to test networks, with no date set yet for the mainnet. Glamsterdam was activated on the Sepolia test network on October 6. The Ethereum Foundation now plans its deployment on Hoodi on October 26 at 17:42 UTC, the last public step announced before a possible activation on the main network.
