According to Cointelegraph, Ethereum Foundation researcher Dankrad Feist proposed the EIP-9698 proposal on April 27, planning to introduce the "deterministic Gas Cap Growth Plan" from Epoch 369017 (around June 1). This is a four-year plan, and the proposal suggests that the limit will gradually increase by 10 times in the first two years (i.e. 164,250 Epochs) until a tenfold increase adjustment is made in the end. In theory, if the Gas limit is increased by 100 times, Ethereum's TPS will be expected to increase to 2,000 transactions. The proposal must be approved by the client before it can be implemented. This expansion attempt is another important progress following the increase in the Gas cap from 30 million to 36 million in February. Feist pointed out that the progressive improvement solution can leave enough optimization time for node operators. At the same time, the developers are testing the EIP-9678 proposal, and plan to achieve a 4x increase in the Gas cap in the Fusaka upgrade at the end of 2025.
