The Ethereum Foundation has shared key technical goals for the “Glamsterdam” upgrade, which will shape the future of the Ethereum network.
According to the Soldøgn Interop Recap summary published by the foundation, more than 100 core developers came together at the event, held in late April 2026, to take critical steps towards improving the network’s scalability and performance.
The most notable goal set within the scope of the event was to increase the minimum gas capacity to 200 million following the Glamsterdam upgrade. This increase aims to significantly expand transaction capacity on the Ethereum network, laying a crucial foundation for higher throughput.

The meeting also saw progress on two key technical aspects of the network architecture. The first was ensuring the stable operation of the ePBS (external Proposer-Builder Separation) architecture, which supports external block producers, with multiple clients. The second topic highlighted was the work done on the EIP-8037 gas repricing parameter, aimed at making transaction costs more balanced.
In addition, developers have made significant progress on block access list optimization and various EIP decisions under Glamsterdam. Simultaneously, infrastructure preparations have been made for innovative features planned for future implementation, such as FOCIL (Hegotá) and native account abstraction.
Through intensive coding work, stress testing, and technical sessions conducted throughout the event, the teams successfully established a stable devnet. Furthermore, numerous critical issues causing incompatibilities between different clients were resolved. During this process, network state growth was brought under control while execution efficiency was optimized.
