Ethereum Foundation Releases 2026 Protocol Priorities Update: Glamsterdam Upgrade Planned for First Half of the Year
PANews, February 19 — The Ethereum Foundation has released the 2026 Protocol Priorities Update, outlining progress along three main tracks:
Scalability (integrating L1 execution and Blob scalability)
Improving user experience (focusing on native account abstraction and cross-chain interoperability)
Strengthening the L1 layer (enhancing security, censorship resistance, and network resilience)
Furthermore, the Ethereum Foundation stated it will continue to push for raising the Gas Limit to 100M and above, advance ePBS and further Blob parameter increases, promote the zkEVM attester client, as well as work on censorship resistance and post-quantum related security. The next major upgrade, Glamsterdam, is targeted for the first half of 2026, with Hegotá planned to follow later in the year.
