The proportion of validators in the Ethereum network supporting an increase in the Gas limit has risen to 10%
According to Cointelegraph, the Ethereum community is gradually increasing its support for raising the Gas limit, with the proportion of validators supporting it rising from 1% a year ago to 10%. Ethereum core developer Eric Connor and former MakerDAO smart contract head Mariano Conti launched the "Pump The Gas" website in March, advocating for raising the Gas limit to 40 million to reduce transaction costs by 15%-33%.
They are calling on stakers, client teams, and communities to jointly promote this change. In December, researcher Justin Drake configured his validator for a gas limit of 36 million in further support of this proposal. Emmanuel Awosika, Creative Director at 2077 Collective also pointed out that current gas limits restrict deployment of high-demand applications.
However, some people have expressed concerns that raising the Gas limit could jeopardize network stability and security. Toni Wahrstätter from Ethereum Foundation has issued warnings about this.
