Ethereum Foundation: Key goals of the Glamsterdam upgrade are basically completed, consensus reached on the 200 million Gas Limit lower limit

The Ethereum Foundation published a summary of the Soldøgn Interop work, which has now basically completed the key goals of the Glamsterdam upgrade, including reaching consensus on the post-upgrade 200 million Gas Limit lower bound, achieving stable operation of the ePBS external Builder process, and finalizing the EIP-8037 Gas repricing parameters.

The focus of the Glamsterdam upgrade is to enhance security by increasing the Gas Limit to expand Ethereum's throughput, while EIP-8037 will prevent state bloat caused by high Gas Limits by increasing the cost of state creation.

The Ethereum Foundation also stated that most clients have completed stable operation on glamsterdam-devnet-2 and successfully tested the entire process of external Builders. In addition, substantial progress has been made on FOCIL, native account abstraction, and Hegotá upgrade-related features. In the coming weeks, core developers will continue to advance client hardening, testing improvements, and code merging, with final parameters to be publicly confirmed at the AllCoreDevs meeting.
