    Ethereum software updates: Glamsterdam

    The Ethereum Foundation postponed the 26 Oct Hoodi activation to 22 Oct, including the planned gas-limit increase to 200M. Developers want more time to assess the effect of EIP-8037 on existing contracts. EIP-8037 increases the gas charged for creating new state, such as accounts or storage slots. The Ethereum Foundation has not said that EIP-8037 has broken the mainnet. No new date has been announced, and the mainnet date is not set. Glamsterdam has been running on the Sepolia testnet since 6 Oct (crypto.news, CryptoBriefing).
