According to the Ethereum Foundation, key objectives for the Glamsterdam upgrade have been substantially completed, with consensus reached on a 200 million Gas Limit floor and stable operation of external builder processes achieved. The upgrade aims to enhance security while expanding Ethereum’s throughput capacity through higher Gas Limits, with EIP-8037 introducing increased state creation costs to prevent unlimited state bloat.
Multiple clients have successfully completed stable operations on glamsterdam-devnet-2 and tested the full external builder workflow. Core developers will continue refining client implementations, testing, and code merges in the coming weeks, with final parameters to be confirmed at upcoming AllCoreDevs meetings.
