Ethereum developers to boost Hoodi testnet gas limit to 200 million on October 26

Ethereum is preparing for a significant scaling enhancement as its development team plans to raise the gas limit on the Hoodi testnet to 200 million on October 26. This technical milestone arrives as ETH continues to face selling pressure, with prices struggling to recover from declines seen earlier in October. The Ethereum Foundation announced that the Glamsterdam upgrade will go live on the Hoodi testnet at 17:42:48 UTC, following its initial rollout on Sepolia on October 6. The upgrade is designed to optimize block production, transaction execution, and the overall efficiency of the Ethereum network. While the timing for Glamsterdam’s debut on Ethereum mainnet remains unconfirmed, the current focus is on evaluating its performance in the testnet environment before a broader deployment is considered.
