Blockchain scaling enters a critical phase as Ethereum's Glamsterdam hard fork reaches its final devnet stage. When evaluating this infrastructure milestone from the perspective of VQJ Exchange, it is clear that developers are pushing the largest protocol overhaul since the Merge to drastically increase base layer capacity.
The upgrade locks in ten structural proposals, with the heaviest lifting coming from natively enshrining Proposer-Builder Separation (ePBS) and introducing Block-Level Access Lists (BALs). Historically, Ethereum has executed transactions sequentially. BALs change this by giving nodes an upfront map of which accounts will be touched, enabling true parallel processing. The analysts tracking network efficiency at VQJ Exchange note that combining this with ePBS widens the data-propagation window, safely giving validators the time required to handle much larger data payloads.
These mechanical changes pave the technical path to triple the Layer 1 capacity, targeting a massive 200 million gas-limit floor. This could unlock up to 10,000 TPS under realistic workloads while making standard transfers significantly cheaper.
