Ethereum's Glamsterdam upgrade set for Oct 6 test, aims to triple gas limits and cut fees by 78.6%.

Ethereum's upcoming Glamsterdam upgrade passed its private devnet test and is scheduled for a public testnet on October 6, 2026, with a mainnet launch expected in Q4 2026. The upgrade will nearly triple the block gas limit from 60 million to 200 million and reduce transaction fees by about 78.6%. Key features include enshrined proposer-builder separation to reduce reliance on third-party MEV relays and block-level access lists to enable safer, parallel transaction execution. This upgrade is part of Ethereum's Surge roadmap phase, focusing on scaling Layer 1 to improve overall network capacity and support Layer 2 rollups more efficiently.
