His idea, outlined in EIP-9698, suggests automating gas limit increases on an exponential schedule, aiming for a hundredfold expansion over four years starting in mid-2025.<\/p>\n
Rather than manual adjustments, Feist proposes predictable tenfold jumps every two years. If adopted, the gas limit would eventually climb from today\u2019s 36 million to 3.6 billion, potentially allowing Ethereum to process around 2,000 transactions per second, according<\/a><\/strong> to developer Fabrice Cheng.<\/p>\n However, Feist admits that scaling this way won\u2019t come without challenges \u2014 slower block propagation and pressure on weaker nodes could emerge. Yet, he believes that gradual growth would give enough time for the network to adapt without compromising stability.<\/p>\n
