The Ethereum roadmap: scalability and quantum defense for 2026
05.04.2026 - 10:33:30 | boerse-global.de
The technical roadmap of Ethereum for 2026 includes two key hard forks: Glamsterdam to increase the gas limit and Hegota with Verkle Trees to enhance decentralization and security.
The Ethereum Foundation has detailed its technical agenda for the current year, establishing a timeline that includes two major hard forks. These milestones aim to transform the fundamental capabilities of the network, addressing everything from immediate scalability to future technological threats, such as quantum computing.
A more efficient and accessible ecosystem
For the first half of 2026, the focus is on the update known as Glamsterdam. Its most significant change will be the increase in the gas limit, which will rise from the current 60 million to over 100 million gas per block. This move follows the doubling that already took place in 2025, when it was raised from 30 million. Industry analysts, such as Anthony Sassano, interpret that the 100 million mark is just a starting point, not a definitive ceiling.
The practical impact of this measure will directly fall on Layer 2 networks, which operate on the Ethereum base. By increasing the capacity of the settlement layer, these solutions will be able to process transactions faster and at reduced costs. This improvement responds to the increasing demand for on-chain capacity, especially driven by institutional applications.
