Ethereum's new upgrade is here: Single transaction Gas limit set at 30 million, moving towards a 100-fold scaling path

Ethereum has recently completed the Fusaka upgrade smoothly, and the highly anticipated EIP-7825 has officially been activated. The core of this upgrade is the introduction of a single transaction gas limit of 30 million, effectively preventing a single large transaction from occupying the entire block's computational resources, thus making network gas consumption more stable and predictable.

Brevis co-founder Michael Dong pointed out that this predictability is crucial for zero-knowledge proof (ZK) systems—it enables real-time verification of blocks and directly helps Ethereum achieve its goal of 100-fold scaling.

Although a vulnerability was discovered in the Prysm client during the upgrade process, the overall progress was smooth, and the mainnet $ETH operated steadily without service interruptions.

This upgrade is seen as a key step for Ethereum towards higher throughput and a more stable network experience, laying the foundational groundwork for future ecosystem expansion and application innovation.
