liveAnnouncements
glamsterdam-devnet-4 targets to launch in late May 2026.
First
glamsterdam-prefixed CL+EL devnet combiningconsensus-specsv1.7.0-alpha.8 with the bal-devnet-7 EL feature set, plus the newtargetGasLimitengine API field (execution-apis#796 ↔ consensus-specs#5235).targetGasLimitonPayloadAttributesV4— CL now passes the per-validator target gas limit to the EL onengine_forkchoiceUpdatedV4, replacing the static EL-side flag. CL also enforcestarget_gas_limitconsistency with the block'sgas_limit(CL PR-5236).EIP-8037 final shape:
cost_per_state_byte1174 → 1530 (fixed),STATE_BYTES_PER_NEW_ACCOUNT112 → 120,STATE_BYTES_PER_STORAGE_SET32 → 64.SYSTEM_CALL_GAS_LIMITraised so system calls can't OOG on state-gas alone. Reference block gas limit raised 96M → 150M.eth/70 (EIP-7975) and eth/71 (EIP-8159) are now mandatory — every EL must implement both (promoted from optional in bal-devnet-7).
