[Golden Finance] According to reports, Ethereum core developer Barnabé Monnot recently discussed the EIP-7782 improvement proposal, which aims to reduce the block generation time from 12 seconds to 6 seconds. This plan is intended to be incorporated into the Glamsterdam upgrade at the end of 2026. Technical adjustments include compressing the block proposal time from 4 seconds to 3 seconds and reducing the verification time from 4 seconds to 1.5 seconds, which saves a total of 6 seconds of latency.
Analysis indicates that after the upgrade, DeFi transaction confirmations will be more efficient, and the window for arbitrage opportunities will shorten, but it may put pressure on network bandwidth and low-configuration validation nodes. If implemented successfully, the Ethereum Gas limit is expected to triple, and the blob supply may reach eight times the current amount. Currently, the proposal is in the early discussion stage and needs to undergo rigorous testing to avoid smart contract compatibility issues.

Is Gas going to da moon again? Can't hold on anymore.
Ethereum plans to double its speed, potentially reducing block generation time to 6 seconds by 2026.
