During an Ask-Me-Anything (AMA) on Reddit, Vitalik Buterin suggested raising the Ethereum gas limit to 40 million to improve network throughput.
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has advocated for a “modest” gas limit increase to potentially improve network throughput.
During a Reddit “ask-me-anything” organized by the Ethereum Foundation's Research Team on Jan. 10, Buterin noted that the gas limit has not been increased for nearly three years, the longest time ever in the protocol’s history.
“Honestly, I think doing a modest gas limit increase even today is reasonable,” said Buterin during the research team's 11th AMA.
