Ethereum tripling its gas limit is the ‘floor, we can go higher’ — Sassano

Ethereum educator Anthony Sassano stated on the Bankless podcast that the goal of tripling Ethereum's gas limit to 180 million next year should be considered the 'floor,' suggesting the network could handle even higher capacity. This follows a recent increase of the gas limit from 45 million to 60 million. Sassano noted that core developers aim for at least a threefold increase over the next couple of years, with some even discussing a fivefold increase within the next year. Achieving higher limits involves repricing transactions, such as lowering the cost of a basic ETH transfer significantly while increasing costs for less efficient operations. This work, co-authored by Sassano and Ben Adams, is targeted for inclusion in the Glamsterdam upgrade in the first half of 2026, ahead of the Fusaka upgrade aimed at improving scalability.
