A blockchain changes its rules through planned upgrades, and every computer running it has to switch to the new rules at the same moment. That is why developers test each upgrade on practice networks for months, since a mistake on the live network could stall payments or split it in two.
Glamsterdam is Ethereum's next upgrade, and it is now in that final stretch. It went live on the Sepolia test network on October 6, 2026 (source: EIP-7773), and the Hoodi test network is next, on October 26 (source: All Core Devs call, October 8). The main Ethereum network has no date yet, but developers are aiming for early December.
If you simply hold ETH, there is nothing to do. The changes are to how blocks are built, how much fits in each one, and what different actions cost in gas, the unit Ethereum uses to measure the work each action takes.
What is the Glamsterdam upgrade?
The Glamsterdam upgrade is Ethereum's next hard fork, a change to the network's rules that every node must install before it goes live. It bundles 18 changes, led by enshrined proposer-builder separation (ePBS) and block-level access lists. Together they are designed to let Ethereum safely fit far more activity into each block (source: Ethereum Foundation).
The name joins the upgrade's two halves. The execution layer runs transactions, and its upgrades are named after cities that hosted Ethereum's Devcon or Devconnect conferences. The consensus layer is how validators agree on blocks, and its upgrades are named after stars. Glamsterdam pairs Amsterdam, where Devconnect was held in 2022, with Gloas, a star (source: Ethereum Foundation).
Glamsterdam follows Pectra, which went live on May 7, 2025, and Fusaka, which went live on December 3, 2025 (source: ethereum.org). Its biggest changes aim to let Ethereum's main chain, called layer 1, handle more activity, the goal the Ethereum roadmap calls scaling layer 1. For the last upgrade, the Pectra upgrade explained covers smart accounts and the staking changes it brought.
When is Glamsterdam going live?
Glamsterdam has no mainnet date yet. It went live on Sepolia on October 6, 2026, and core developers then set Hoodi for October 26 (source: All Core Devs call, October 8). They are aiming for early December 2026 (source: All Core Devs call, August 27), but EIP-7773, the official upgrade list, still leaves the mainnet date blank (source: EIP-7773).
The upgrade has slipped before. In February 2026, the Ethereum Foundation expected Glamsterdam in the first half of the year (source: Ethereum Foundation, February 2026). Testing then took longer than planned:
Date | Milestone | Status |
|---|---|---|
February 18, 2026 | The Ethereum Foundation targets the first half of 2026 (source: Ethereum Foundation) | Missed |
August 20, 2026 | Glamsterdam activates on Platåberget (devnet-8), a public test network built for it, and a client bug briefly stops the network finalizing (source: All Core Devs call, August 20) | Done |
September 2, 2026 | Glamsterdam activates on devnet-9, a stress test with about 1,000 nodes, and the network stops finalizing (source: All Core Devs call, September 3) | Done |
September 3, 2026 | The Sepolia date moves from September 28 to October 6 (source: All Core Devs call, September 3) | Done |
October 6, 2026 | Glamsterdam activates on Sepolia at 1.53PM UTC (source: EIP-7773) | Done |
October 16, 2026 | Client software for the Hoodi fork is due (source: Ethereum PM, call agenda) | Scheduled |
October 26, 2026 | Glamsterdam activates on Hoodi at 5.42PM UTC (source: All Core Devs call, October 8) | Scheduled |
Early December 2026 | Mainnet working target, with December 1, 8 and 9 floated as candidate dates (source: Ethereum PM, mainnet proposal) | Not scheduled |
Finality is the point at which the network treats a block as permanent, so a test network that stops finalizing is the warning sign developers watch for. Sepolia went smoothly, and on the October 8 call one developer called it "a boring fork", which is exactly what developers want to hear. The early December target dates from a plan made in late August. Developers had proposed September 28 for the Sepolia fork, followed by about 30 days for security audits and about 30 days for layer 2 networks, separate chains that run on top of Ethereum, to prepare (source: All Core Devs call, August 27). Sepolia has since moved to October 6 and Hoodi is set for October 26, but an open planning proposal still lists December 1, 8 and 9 as possible mainnet dates (source: Ethereum PM, mainnet proposal).
How a mainnet date gets set
No single company picks the date. Ethereum runs on software from several independent teams, called clients, and their developers meet on public calls, called All Core Devs calls, to agree on each step together. They choose a date only after the upgrade runs cleanly on test networks, and then each team ships a release with the switch-over point built in.
The switch-over point is an epoch, a unit of time on Ethereum lasting about 6.4 minutes, so every node flips to the new rules at the same instant. The Ethereum Foundation then posts a mainnet announcement on its blog with the exact epoch and time. Pectra's announcement went up two weeks before activation (source: Ethereum Foundation, Pectra announcement), and Fusaka's about four weeks before (source: Ethereum Foundation, Fusaka announcement).
If you want to know when Glamsterdam is close, watch for these signals, in order:
Client teams ship their Hoodi releases and the Ethereum Foundation posts its Hoodi announcement, both due October 16 (source: All Core Devs call, October 12).
Hoodi forks on October 26 and keeps finalizing.
Developers pick a mainnet epoch on an All Core Devs call.
Client teams publish releases with the mainnet epoch built in.
The Ethereum Foundation blog posts the Glamsterdam mainnet announcement.
What Glamsterdam changes: The two headline upgrades
Glamsterdam's two headline changes rebuild how Ethereum blocks are made and checked. Enshrined proposer-builder separation writes the deal between the validators who propose blocks and the builders who fill them into Ethereum's rules. Block-level access lists let nodes process transactions in parallel. Together they give Ethereum the time and speed to raise its gas limit safely (source: Ethereum Foundation).
ePBS: Enshrined proposer-builder separation
A validator proposes every Ethereum block, but most validators let a specialized builder pick and order the transactions, because builders pay well for that right. Today the hand-off runs through relays, outside services that both sides have to trust, using software called MEV-Boost. MEV on Ethereum explains why builders compete for that position.
ePBS, defined in EIP-7732, writes builders into Ethereum's own rules. Builders register on the chain, and the protocol handles the payment to the validator. Validators also gain a new duty: confirming that the builder released the block's contents on time (source: EIP-7732). Relays become optional rather than required, and builders and proposers can still use them if they choose (source: ethereum.org).
The bigger effect is on time. ePBS stretches the window for spreading block data across the network from about 2 seconds to about 9 seconds (source: ethereum.org). More time to share and check data is what lets Ethereum carry bigger blocks while slower nodes keep up.
Block-level access lists
Each block will now carry a list of every account and every piece of stored contract data its transactions touch, along with what each one holds once the block is done. With that list, a node can load data in parallel and check transactions side by side. It can also update its copy of Ethereum's records without re-running every transaction (source: EIP-7928).
You will never see an access list, but node operators will notice faster processing and syncing. That speed matters because bigger blocks are only safe if ordinary hardware can keep up with them. How Ethereum nodes and clients work covers the software involved.
How Glamsterdam raises Ethereum's gas limit
Glamsterdam is built to lift Ethereum's gas limit, the cap on how much work fits in one block, from 60 million gas to about 200 million (source: Ethereum Foundation, May 2026). Developers plan to switch on the higher target at the fork (source: All Core Devs call, October 8). Validators then raise the limit in small steps (source: EIP-8261).
Mainnet blocks carried a 60 million gas limit on October 13, 2026, after rising from 30 million (source: Ethereum Foundation, February 2026). On Sepolia, which already runs Glamsterdam, the limit has climbed to roughly 200 million (source: All Core Devs call, October 8). Each block can move the limit by only 1/1024 of the last block's limit, so the climb is gradual, and nobody yet knows how long mainnet will take to reach 200 million (source: EIP-8261). How gas works on Ethereum explains gas units and the gas limit in more detail.
Bigger blocks bring a cost of their own. Ethereum's state is the record of every account, balance and contract, and every node stores it. If blocks hold more, the state grows faster and nodes need more disk space. So Glamsterdam pairs the higher limit with new gas prices for actions that grow the state, aiming to hold state growth to about 120 GiB of extra data a year with a gas limit of 150 million (source: EIP-8037).
Bigger blocks also raise the bar for the machine a node runs on. EIP-7870 lists the hardware a node operator needs, and its current figure for disk speed is 500 megabytes a second (source: EIP-7870). On October 12, developers said that figure is now too low: at that speed the heaviest possible Glamsterdam block takes about eight seconds to process, so they want it raised to between 1,000 and 2,000 megabytes a second, because the gas limit is going to 200 million and contracts can be nearly three times larger (source: All Core Devs call, October 12).
Why some actions will cost more gas
The repricing works in both directions. The Ethereum Foundation says the new prices support roughly three times more activity, but actions that add to Ethereum's permanent records cost more gas. Ethereum last repriced these operations in the Berlin upgrade in 2021, and its state has grown a lot since (source: Ethereum Foundation, August 2026):
Creating new accounts, storage slots and contracts costs more, under EIP-8037 (source: EIP-8037).
Reading and writing existing state costs more, under EIP-8038 (source: EIP-8038).
Transactions packed with raw data pay a higher minimum price for each byte of data, 64 gas, up from 10 or 40 gas depending on the byte. That cuts the size of the largest possible block by about 37% (source: EIP-7976).
Here is what that means for a simple payment. Say you send ETH to a friend's address that has received ETH before. That transfer still uses 21,000 gas, the same as today. Now say you send ETH to a brand-new address that has never held anything. Under Glamsterdam, that transfer uses the same 21,000 gas plus 183,600 in state gas for creating the new account, charged on the separate meter EIP-8037 adds for state growth. The extra charge exists because a new account adds to the records every node stores forever (source: EIP-2780).
Will Glamsterdam lower gas fees?
Neither the Ethereum Foundation's Glamsterdam posts nor the upgrade's EIPs promise lower fees. The new gas prices are designed to support about three times more activity, and more space tends to keep fees low if demand holds steady. But demand sets the fee, and some actions, like creating accounts, will use more gas (source: Ethereum Foundation, August 2026).
Fees are already low. The base fee, the minimum price per unit of gas, was 0.0625 gwei on October 13, 2026, and a gwei is one billionth of an ETH. At that rate, a 21,000-gas transfer pays 1,312.5 gwei in base fee, about 0.0000013 ETH, well under one US cent, before any tip to the validator.
Lower fees also affect ETH's supply. Since 2021, Ethereum has burned the base fee of every transaction, removing that ETH for good, so the amount burned equals the base fee times the gas used. So if more block space keeps the base fee down, each transaction burns less ETH, though more transactions may make up some of the gap. EIP-1559 explained covers how the burn works.
Every change in Glamsterdam
Glamsterdam contains 18 changes, all listed in EIP-7773, the upgrade's official list (source: EIP-7773). Each change is an Ethereum Improvement Proposal, or EIP, and developers call each one by its number. Two are the headline upgrades, and the rest reprice gas, help stakers or give developers new tools:
EIP | What it does, in plain words | Who notices |
|---|---|---|
EIP-7732 | Enshrined proposer-builder separation: the protocol handles the hand-off and payment between block proposers and builders | Validators, builders, staking pools |
EIP-7928 | Block-level access lists: each block lists what it touches, so nodes can process it in parallel | Node operators, client teams |
EIP-2780 | Resets the base cost of a transaction; a plain transfer stays at 21,000 gas, and creating a new account costs extra | Wallets, anyone sending to a new address |
EIP-8037 | Raises the gas cost of creating state, with its own meter for state growth | App users, contract deployers |
EIP-8038 | Raises the gas cost of reading and writing existing state | Contracts with hardcoded gas amounts |
EIP-7976 | Raises the minimum gas charged per byte of transaction data | Data-heavy transactions |
EIP-7981 | Charges access lists for the data they add, shrinking the largest possible block by about 21% (source: EIP-7981) | Data-heavy transactions |
EIP-7778 | Counts a block's gas before refunds, so refunds no longer free up room under the block gas limit, while users still receive them (source: EIP-7778) | Block builders |
EIP-8061 | Quadruples the exit churn and roughly doubles the consolidation churn, so validators leave faster when queues build | Stakers, staking pools |
EIP-8045 | Stops slashed validators from being chosen to propose blocks (source: EIP-8045) | Validators |
EIP-8282 | Gives builders their own contracts for joining and leaving (source: EIP-8282) | Builders |
EIP-7688 | Switches consensus data to a format that stays compatible as it changes (source: EIP-7688) | Client teams, light clients |
EIP-7708 | Makes every ETH transfer emit a log, like a token transfer | Wallets, explorers, exchanges |
EIP-7843 | Adds an opcode that returns the current slot number (source: EIP-7843) | Developers |
EIP-7954 | Raises the maximum contract size from 24,576 bytes to 65,536 bytes | Developers |
EIP-7997 | Makes a standard factory contract available, so a contract can sit at the same address on every EVM chain (source: EIP-7997) | Developers, smart wallets |
EIP-8024 | Adds three instructions that make deep stack access easier (source: EIP-8024) | Compiler teams |
EIP-8246 | Stops the SELFDESTRUCT instruction from burning ETH; the balance is kept | Developers |
The list also has five networking changes, which change how nodes share data, and two informational EIPs. One of those, EIP-8261, lets client teams schedule the gas limit increase (source: EIP-7773).
How Glamsterdam compares with Pectra and Fusaka
Pectra and Fusaka did much of their work for layer 2 networks. These separate chains bundle transactions and post them to Ethereum as blobs, a cheap, temporary form of data storage added in 2024. Glamsterdam puts its weight on the main chain:
Upgrade | Mainnet date | Headline changes | What users felt |
|---|---|---|---|
Pectra | May 7, 2025 | Smart-account features for regular wallets (EIP-7702); validator balances up to 2,048 ETH; blob capacity doubled to an average of 6 per block (source: Ethereum Foundation, Pectra announcement) | Wallets gained batching and sponsored transactions; cheaper layer 2 fees |
Fusaka | December 3, 2025 | PeerDAS, which lets nodes check blob data by sampling it; a per-transaction gas cap of 16,777,216 (source: Ethereum Foundation, Fusaka announcement) | More blob capacity for layer 2 networks |
Glamsterdam | Not set; early December 2026 targeted | ePBS, block-level access lists, gas repricing, a gas limit target of about 200 million (source: Ethereum Foundation, May 2026) | Bigger main-chain blocks; higher gas use for actions that create state |
Proto-danksharding and blobs covers the 2024 change that Pectra and Fusaka built on.
What Glamsterdam means for you
What you need to do depends on how you use Ethereum. If you just hold ETH, you need to do nothing. If you run a validator, build apps or run a layer 2 network, you have work to do before mainnet (source: Ethereum Foundation). Here is a quick guide:
If you… | What to do before Glamsterdam |
|---|---|
Hold ETH in a wallet, on an exchange or through a fund | Nothing; your balance stays the same |
Stake through a service or exchange | Nothing; your provider handles the client updates |
Run your own validator | Update both your execution and consensus clients, and learn the new ePBS duties |
Build smart contracts or wallets | Check for hardcoded gas amounts and gas-limit caps, and test on Sepolia or Hoodi |
Run a layer 2 network | Test against the new gas costs during the window developers leave before mainnet |
If you hold ETH
Your ETH stays exactly where it is, and no new token is created. There is no need to convert or upgrade your ETH, and your balance will be the same after the fork (source: ethereum.org). That also applies to ETH on an exchange or in a fund, because the upgrade changes the network's rules, and your coins stay as they are.
That fact makes upgrades a favorite cover story for scams. Anyone instructing you to "upgrade" your ETH is trying to scam you (source: ethereum.org). The same trick can show up as a request to "migrate" your ETH, connect your wallet to claim a Glamsterdam token, or send ETH to get new ETH back. Common Ethereum scams shows what these approaches usually look like.
If you stake ETH
Solo validators take on a new job under ePBS: confirming that builders release their block contents on time. Read your client's upgrade instructions for that duty and update both clients before activation (source: Ethereum Foundation). How Ethereum validators work explains those duties.
Leaving staking gets faster. EIP-8061 quadruples the exit churn, the amount of staked ETH allowed to leave in each epoch, roughly doubles the limit for merging validators, and keeps the cap on new deposits (source: EIP-8061). Say a wave of exits builds a queue that would take 40 days to clear at today's limit, about as long as a past exit queue the EIP's authors cite. With four times the limit, the same queue clears in about 10 days. If you want to earn on ETH without running a validator, Ethereum staking on BloFin explains the options.
If you build apps or run a layer 2
The repricing can break code that assumes fixed gas amounts. One example is the 2,300-gas allowance that Solidity, the main language for Ethereum contracts, gives its transfer and send functions. The Ethereum Foundation says most flagged issues are fixed by raising a gas limit, and the large majority of smart contracts are unaffected (source: Ethereum Foundation, August 2026). Wallets, indexers and gas estimators that hard-code a maximum gas limit will break and need updating (source: Ethereum Foundation, August 2026 testnet).
Developers get more room too, as the contract size limit rises from 24,576 bytes to 65,536 bytes (source: EIP-7954), and every ETH transfer now emits a log that explorers and wallets can track (source: EIP-7708). Why Ethereum needs layer 2s covers how layer 2 networks depend on the main chain.
What could delay Glamsterdam
Glamsterdam could still slip, because mainnet depends on smooth test networks, and both earlier finality failures came from client software. On Platåberget, a bug with builder deposits briefly paused finality (source: All Core Devs call, August 20). On devnet-9, some clients could not process the new rules or ran out of memory (source: All Core Devs call, September 3).
Other risks are more specific. In late August, developers found a bug in the design of EIP-8037, the state-creation pricing change, and fixing it meant changing the consensus rules every client follows. If the fix had needed a new round of testing, it could have cost about a month (source: All Core Devs call, August 31). On Sepolia, only about five builders were active on October 8, and the biggest builders had yet to join, so ePBS still has to be tested with the full builder market (source: All Core Devs call, October 8).
Hoodi is a harder test than Sepolia. Sepolia's validators are a known group, while any staker can run a Hoodi validator. Another developer warned on the October 8 call that it would be "a much more complicated fork". Developers also chose to leave one known minor bug, in how block proposers are picked, for a later upgrade, judging it hard to exploit (source: All Core Devs call, October 12).
What comes after Glamsterdam: Hegotá
The upgrade after Glamsterdam is called Hegotá, joining the city Bogotá with the star Heze (source: ethereum.org). Its two headline changes are fork-choice enforced inclusion lists, known as FOCIL, and frame transactions, and it has no date yet (source: Ethereum Foundation, September 2026).
FOCIL lets validators force eligible transactions into blocks, which gives any user a way to get a transaction included without relying on a handful of large builders (source: Ethereum Foundation, Hegotá proposals). It was considered for Glamsterdam and moved to Hegotá as part of a decision to cut Glamsterdam's scope (source: Ethereum Foundation, December 2025). Frame transactions build smart-account features into Ethereum itself. They would let wallets switch to new kinds of signatures, including ones built to resist quantum computers, without a fork for each one (source: Ethereum Foundation, Hegotá proposals).
Shorter block times are also being discussed for Hegotá. A proposal would cut each slot, the time per block, from 12 seconds to 10 seconds, but developers say it needs more testing before they schedule it (source: All Core Devs call, October 1). The Ethereum Foundation expects client teams to start building Hegotá in late 2026 (source: Ethereum Foundation, September 2026).
How ETH's price moved around past Ethereum upgrades
ETH's price has moved both ways after past upgrades, and the upgrade day itself has rarely brought the big move. Across the last five upgrades, ETH changed between −9.9% and +6.4% on the day. Thirty days later, it was higher after two upgrades and lower after three (source: BloFin; Coin Metrics).
Each change is measured from the close the day before, using daily closes in UTC on BloFin's ETHUSDT Perpetual. The Merge came before that market existed, so its figures use Coin Metrics prices. Three of the five upgrade days stayed within ±1.5% (source: BloFin; Coin Metrics):
Upgrade | Mainnet date | Day change | 7 days later | 30 days later |
|---|---|---|---|---|
The Merge | September 15, 2022 | −9.9% | −18.7% | −22.0% |
Shapella | April 12, 2023 | +1.5% | +2.3% | −4.4% |
Dencun | March 13, 2024 | +0.6% | −11.8% | −18.8% |
Pectra | May 7, 2025 | −0.3% | +43.6% | +36.3% |
Fusaka | December 3, 2025 | +6.4% | +11.0% | +4.3% |
Dencun shows the pattern traders call "buy the rumor, sell the news": ETH rose 49.8% in the month before the upgrade, then fell 18.8% in the month after it.
Since Glamsterdam reached Sepolia, ETH has fallen. It closed at $2,696.45 on October 6, 2026, and traded at $2,528.68 at 5.52AM UTC on October 13, a fall of 6.2%. An upgrade is one input among many: what drives ETH's price covers the others, and event risk in crypto explains how traders handle scheduled events like this one.

How to trade ETH around Glamsterdam on BloFin
Upgrade dates and test network results can move ETH quickly in either direction, so decide your exit before you enter. BloFin's ETHUSDT Perpetual lets you go long or short ETH around the clock, and BloFin also offers ETH perpetuals settled in USDC and in ETH itself, plus spot markets in ETH/USDT and ETH/USDC if you would rather buy ETH outright.
Size the trade from your stop. Say you have 1,000 USDT and will risk 1%, or 10 USDT, on one trade. If your stop sits 4% from your entry, your position can be no larger than 250 USDT, because 4% of 250 is 10. How to set a stop-loss on BloFin walks through placing it, and how liquidation works explains why leverage magnifies losses as well as gains.
If you would rather follow an experienced trader, BloFin's copy trading covers the ETHUSDT Perpetual, and you decide how much of your money each copied trader can use. Read how to copy trade on BloFin first.
To get started, create a BloFin account, add crypto to your BloFin account, and open the ETHUSDT Perpetual, the ETHUSDC Perpetual, the ETHUSD Perpetual, the ETH/USDT Spot trading page, the ETH/USDC Spot trading page or the lead traders you can copy.
Frequently asked questions
What does the name Glamsterdam mean?
Glamsterdam blends Amsterdam and Gloas, and every Ethereum upgrade since 2023 has joined a city and a star the same way. Shapella paired Shanghai with Capella, Dencun paired Cancun with Deneb, Pectra paired Prague with Electra, and Fusaka paired Osaka with Fulu (source: ethereum.org). The upgrade's mascot is a polar bear (source: EIP-7773).
Will Glamsterdam make ETH's price go up?
Nobody can know, and past upgrades have gone both ways. A big move can also arrive a day late: ETH rose 21.9% on May 8, 2025, the day after Pectra went live. Price depends on demand, the wider market and news far beyond any single upgrade.
Do I need to do anything with my ETH for Glamsterdam?
Your ETH needs no action, wherever you hold it. The Ethereum Foundation's Glamsterdam announcement answers that question for holders with a single word, no, and says a separate announcement will cover the mainnet activation (source: Ethereum Foundation). Because there is nothing you need to do in relation to the upgrade (source: ethereum.org), treat any request for your recovery phrase or a wallet signature in Glamsterdam's name as a scam.
Will smart contracts still work after Glamsterdam?
The large majority will. The Ethereum Foundation replayed past mainnet transactions under the new gas prices and found most ran exactly as before. The contracts at risk hardcode gas values, change their behavior based on how much gas is left, or rely on presigned transactions with a fixed gas limit. Anyone maintaining a contract can paste its address into the Ethereum Foundation's affected-contracts search to see whether it is flagged and why (source: Ethereum Foundation, August 2026).
Does Glamsterdam change ETH staking rewards or supply?
None of the 18 changes listed in EIP-7773 alters how much new ETH is issued to stakers, and every transaction still burns its base fee. EIP-8037 does change how the base fee adjusts from block to block, because it now follows whichever of its two gas meters is fuller (source: EIP-8037). The one supply-related change is small: EIP-8246 stops the SELFDESTRUCT instruction from destroying ETH, so the balance is kept instead (source: EIP-8246).
Is Glamsterdam a hard fork?
Glamsterdam is a hard fork, so a node that does not support the new rules cannot follow the upgraded network after activation (source: Ethereum Foundation). Wallets, exchanges and staking services rely on nodes that they or their providers update before the fork, which is why someone who only holds ETH never installs anything.
