Over 150,000 Ethereum Validators Back Gas Limit Increase to 60M, Boosting L1 Transaction Capacity Without Hard Fork
According to Crypto Rover, over 150,000 Ethereum validators have expressed support for raising the network's gas limit from 36 million to 60 million, a move that increases Layer 1 transaction capacity without requiring a hard fork (source: Crypto Rover on Twitter, May 27, 2025). This upgrade is expected to directly enhance throughput and reduce network congestion, potentially impacting Ethereum price action by encouraging higher on-chain activity and greater DeFi and NFT volume. Traders should monitor gas fee trends and mainnet inflow metrics as this validator consensus could accelerate ecosystem growth and influence ETH market volatility. |
