According to data<\/a><\/strong> from Ethereum researcher Toni Wahrst\u00e4tter\u2019s dashboard, over 150,000 validators\u2014roughly 15% of the network\u2014are currently signaling support for raising the gas cap from 36 million to 60 million units.<\/p>\n

Gas represents the computation required for processing transactions, and the gas limit defines how much of it can be consumed per block.<\/p>\n

Unlike hard forks, this change is enacted gradually as validators independently adjust their configurations. Once a majority crosses the 50% support threshold, the new limit takes effect automatically.<\/p>\n
