BlockBeats News, December 25 — According to Cointelegraph, the next year will be a critical period for Ethereum scaling. By 2026, Ethereum will undergo the Glamsterdam fork, which will introduce near-perfect parallel processing capabilities to the mainnet and significantly increase the Gas limit from the current 60 million to 200 million. A large number of validators will shift from re-executing transactions to verifying zero-knowledge (ZK) proofs. This transition will enable Ethereum Layer 1 to develop towards processing up to 10,000 transactions per second (TPS) or even higher, although this goal will not be achieved by 2026. Meanwhile, data blocks will increase (each block potentially reaching 72 or more), allowing Layer 2 to handle hundreds of thousands of transactions per second. Layer 2 is also becoming increasingly user-friendly; ZKsync’s recent Atlas upgrade allows funds to remain on the mainnet but enables transactions within the fast execution environment of the ZKsync resilient network. The planned Ethereum interoperability layer will facilitate seamless cross-chain operations between Layer 2 solutions, with privacy becoming a focus, while the Heze-Bogota fork aims to enhance censorship resistance by the end of the year.
