PANews reported on November 29th, citing Cointelegraph, that Ethereum supporter Anthony Sassano stated in an interview that Ethereum's gas limit could more than triple next year, and some Ethereum core developers are even discussing the possibility of increasing the gas limit fivefold within the next year. Previously, Ethereum's gas limit (the maximum amount of work allowed in each block on the network) was increased from 45 million to 60 million. Sassano stated that developers can achieve this by rebalancing transaction costs, reducing the cost of some activities on Ethereum while increasing the cost of others. "The cost of a native ETH transfer can be reduced from 21,000 gas to 6,000 gas, a reduction of over 70%, while maintaining the gas cap unchanged." By reallocating costs and repricing other activities in this way, the network can ultimately support higher gas caps. Sassano and Ethereum core developer Ben Adams co-authored an Ethereum Improvement Proposal (EIP), which they plan to incorporate into Ethereum's Glamsterdam upgrade, expected to take place in the first half of 2026.PANews reported on November 29th, citing Cointelegraph, that Ethereum supporter Anthony Sassano stated in an interview that Ethereum's gas limit could more than triple next year, and some Ethereum core developers are even discussing the possibility of increasing the gas limit fivefold within the next year.
