🚨ETHEREUM #RESEARCHER PROPOSES 100X #GAS LIMIT INCREASE
proposal EIP-9698 by Dankrad Feist.
Grow Ethereum gas limit 100x over 4 years
Plan:
🔹Gradual 10x increase over ~2 years (164,250 epochs)
🔹One final 10x jump afterward
🔹Start around June 1, 2025 (Epoch 369017)
Impact:
🔹Boost TPS from ~20 to ~2,000
🔹Expand gas limit from 36M to 3.6B
Challenges:
🔹Stress on less-optimized nodes
🔹Longer block propagation times
-----
🔹Ethereum gas limit last raised from 30M to 36M in February 2025
🔹Fusaka hard fork (EIP-9678) may further quadruple gas limit by late 2025
