Ethereum Glamsterdam hits Sepolia with 200 million gas limit test
Ethereum’s Glamsterdam upgrade has gone live on the Sepolia testnet, moving its 2026 scaling package into one of its final public testing stages before a planned mainnet activation.
Ethereum’s Glamsterdam upgrade has gone live on the Sepolia testnet, moving its 2026 scaling package into one of its final public testing stages before a planned mainnet activation.
Sepolia marks one of the final major rehearsals before the final activation of Glamsterdam, aimed at bringing more efficiency and scalability to the Ethereum mainnet.
Ethereum is preparing to test a 200 million gas limit on the Sepolia testnet as the Glamsterdam upgrade moves to its next testing stage today.
The Glamsterdam upgrade could enhance Ethereum's scalability and market perception, potentially influencing its future price and adoption.
ETH trades at $2,696.55 as Glamsterdam tests a 200 million gas limit on Sepolia. Key ETH levels, risks and catalysts to watch.
The Sepolia testnet's upgrade hints at Ethereum's potential for increased capacity, but raises concerns about decentralization and node performance.
Ethereum has prepared to test a 200 million gas limit on Sepolia under the Glamsterdam upgrade, putting more than three times the network’s previous block capacity through a public test before developers decide what could eventually work on mainnet.
Glamsterdam will bring proposer-builder separation, block-level access lists and new gas pricing, while its mainnet date remains unset.
Ethereum's Glamsterdam upgrade reaches Sepolia on October 6, 2026, while mainnet remains a Q4 target without a confirmed launch date.
Glamsterdam will activate on October 6th for the Sepolia testnet, according to Ethereum developers. The upgrade is to undergo yet another round of testing by client teams who will develop software that is compatible.
Ethereum set Oct. 6 for Glamsterdam on Sepolia as developers warned free test ether could let disposable builders disrupt payload delivery.
Ethereum developers have tentatively scheduled Glamsterdam on Sepolia for Oct. 6, pending results from another private devnet test.
Base has deployed its Beryl upgrade to the Sepolia testnet and has scheduled the release for mainnet activation on June 25, introducing a native token standard and reducing withdrawal times to Ethereum. Base’s engineering team said in a blog post…
