Ethereum is making a big move! EIP-9698 plans to increase the gas limit by 100 times within 4 years, aiming for a TPS soaring to 2000!
Ethereum is brewing a major change! Foundation researcher Dankrad Feist proposed a significant proposal, EIP-9698, aiming to increase the gas limit by 100 times in the next four years, completely unleashing network performance. If the plan goes ahead, starting from June 2025, the gas limit will increase by 10 times every two years, and Ethereum's TPS is expected to break through the 2,000 mark!
Feist pointed out that while node optimization and block propagation may face challenges, gradual growth will leave ample room for developers and node operators to adapt. Historical data shows that Ethereum laid the groundwork for this 'speed-up' as early as February 2025 through multiple adjustments.
Currently, the price of ETH is approximately $1810.81, with a market capitalization of 218.6 billion and a market share of 7.34%. Despite a 43.32% drop over the past 90 days, the expectations for expansion are igniting new hope. Coincu analysts also believe that although potential technical and regulatory challenges exist, the feasibility of EIP-9698 is extremely high and will open up broader horizons for Ethereum!
