.@Ethereum’s block gas limit reached 60M after over 50% of validators signaled the increase.
This change raises L1 data capacity and transaction throughput, doubling the limit over the past year. @VitalikButerin has suggested a possible 5x increase ahead, and proposals like EIP-9698 explore even larger, gradual expansions.
7/
Just a year after the community started pushing for higher gas limits, Ethereum is now running with a 60M block gas limit.
That’s a 2× increase in a single year — and it’s only the beginning.
H/t to all client teams, the researchers involved, and to @nanexcool and @econoar for helping mobilize the effort.
