ETH news: Ethereum’s Glamsterdam test gets last-minute fix before major capacity jump
Summary
Ethereum’s Prysm client released version 7.2.1 ahead of the Glamsterdam test on the Sepolia testnet, adding the planned 200 million gas limit. Without the update, some validators would have remained at 60 million, weakening the test of Ethereum’s ability to handle blocks more than three times larger. The change applies only to Sepolia; Glamsterdam has not launched on Ethereum’s main network. Developers will use the test to assess validator performance before considering future capacity changes.
