🔈🔈 Ethereum Sets October 6 for Glamsterdam Testnet Upgrade 💥 Ethereum has officially scheduled its next major upgrade, Glamsterdam, to activate on the Sepolia testnet on October 6, 2026 at 13:53:36 UTC. 👑 Key updates: ✔️ ePBS will bring proposer-builder separation directly into Ethereum’s protocol, reducing reliance on external relays. ✔️ Block-Level Access Lists (BAL) will allow clients to identify data dependencies in advance, paving the way for parallel transaction processing. ✔️ Gas pricing will be adjusted to better reflect actual resource usage and long-term state growth. ✔️ Developers are targeting a minimum 200M gas limit after Glamsterdam, significantly increasing L1 execution capacity. 🔴 The October 6 activation is only for Sepolia. Hoodi and Ethereum mainnet dates have not been finalized, although the mainnet rollout is currently targeted for Q4 2026. 📌 Glamsterdam represents another major step in Ethereum’s roadmap toward higher L1 throughput and more efficient block processing.
