Ethereum researcher proposes 100-fold 'exponential' gas limit boost to improve mainnet scaling
Ethereum researcher Dankrad Feist has proposed EIP-9698, a plan to increase the network's gas limit by 100x over four years, potentially enabling up to 2,000 transactions per second. While it could greatly improve scalability and competitiveness, it may strain less-optimized nodes and slow block propagation, requiring gradual adaptation.
