Ethereum Update: Glamsterdam Development Network Launches, Hegotá Roadmap Adjusted

CryptoWorld News: The Ethereum Foundation has released a new protocol update, confirming that the Glamsterdam development network is now live, and that the Hegotá scalability roadmap is also progressing in parallel. Core developers outlined execution layer changes at an interoperability meeting held on the Svalbard Islands in Norway, including proposed proposer-builder separation (EPBS), gas repricing for EIP-8037, and censorship-resistant features, planned for phased implementation. EPBS is now stably running on the multi-client Glamsterdam development network, with the external block building process having completed end-to-end testing, covering almost all client implementations. The final draft of EIP-8037 has been parameterized on the bal-devnet-6 test network, aiming to set a state growth target of approximately 60GiB per year while maintaining deployability for large contracts. Hegotá will introduce Verkle trees to reduce node storage requirements. The activation of the Glamsterdam mainnet is still scheduled for the first half of 2026, while Hegotá is positioned as a “cleanup and optimization” fork planned for late 2026.
