According to BlockBeats, the Ethereum Foundation has released a blog post detailing recent progress in its 'Scale L1' initiatives. The update highlights three key developments:
Firstly, Marius van der Wijden has joined Ansgar Dietrichs and Tim Beiko to co-lead the L1 scaling efforts. Secondly, following the Berlinterop, the mainnet gas limit has been increased to 45 million, marking the first step towards achieving a gas limit of 100 million and beyond. Lastly, all major execution layer clients have implemented pre-merge historical expiration features, significantly reducing node disk usage.
In response to the growing demand on the Ethereum network, the foundation restructured its research and development team in June, renaming it 'Protocol.' The team is now focused on three strategic goals: L1 scaling, blob expansion, and user experience improvements, while ensuring security and decentralization.
