The Ethereum Glamsterdam upgrade is running on the Sepolia testnet, with the Gas limit raised to nearly 200 million.
According to CoinDesk, the Ethereum Glamsterdam upgrade was activated on the Sepolia testnet this Tuesday, raising the block Gas limit from approximately 60 million to nearly 200 million, an increase of over threefold. A review of more than 25 consecutive test blocks showed that actual Gas usage ranged from approximately 52 million to 92 million, accounting for only 26% to 46% of the available limit, with no blocks reaching full capacity. The upgrade also adjusted the Gas consumption model for specific tasks and storage data fees, requiring developers to retest applications that rely on specific Gas cost assumptions. The next public testnet, Hoodi, is tentatively scheduled to launch on October 27, while the Ethereum mainnet activation date remains to be determined.
