Following the Glamsterdam upgrade, Ethereum's gas limit is set to jump from 60 million to roughly 200 million — a more-than-3x expansion of L1 execution capacity. According to researcher Hasu, a further doubling is expected shortly after that, compounding the throughput gain significantly.
The direct implication: if network demand doesn't surge in lockstep, mainnet gas fees could hover near zero for several years. That's a structural shift for developers and users who have long priced in congestion as a baseline cost of doing business on Ethereum.
Cheaper L1 blockspace also reshapes the economics for rollups and protocols that periodically settle or post data to mainnet — a rising tide that could accelerate adoption across the broader Ethereum ecosystem.
