Base Set for Major Upgrade: Gas Target Hits New High
Base, an Ethereum layer 2 network, is poised to significantly increase its gas target to 10MGas per second on July 30, marking a major milestone for the platform.
This upgrade, termed “Exodus,” follows a recent target adjustment to 9.375MGas/sec and is expected to drive further innovation while attracting more developers. Jesse Pollak, a key figure at Base, shared the news on X, noting that this adjustment will propel the network into the double digits for gas targets, enhancing its transaction processing capabilities.
The move comes as Base has already achieved a significant rise in its transaction throughput, surpassing 50 transactions per second (TPS) for the first time. This increased capacity is anticipated to support more extensive and efficient network activities, addressing the growing demand for scalable blockchain solutions.
In preparation for the upgrade, Base is advising node operators to enhance their infrastructure.
