#ZKVM Vitalik Buterin proposes to cap gas usage per Ethereum transaction to boost zkVM compatibility, security
EIP 7983 will limit the gas usage of each transaction to 16.77 million gas, aiming to reduce DoS attack vectors and balance gas allocation.
“By implementing this limit, Ethereum can enhance its resilience against certain DoS [Denial of Service attack] vectors, improve network stability, and provide more predictability to transaction processing costs.”
“This value enables most current use cases, including contract deployments and advanced DeFi interactions, while ensuring consistent performance characteristics.” $ETH
