Ethereum Researcher Behind ‘Danksharding’ Proposes Increasing Gas Limits by 100x

The architect behind Ethereum’s ’danksharding’ upgrade just dropped a bombshell: a proposal to crank gas limits up by 100x. If implemented, this could slash transaction costs to near-zero—or turn the network into a free-for-all traffic jam. Pick your narrative.

Why it matters: Ethereum’s gas fees have long been the crypto equivalent of airport lounge pricing—outrageous unless you’re rolling in ETH. This move could democratize access... or expose the chain to spam attacks that make CryptoKitties look tame.

The cynical take: Wall Street will still find a way to repackage these ’cheap transactions’ into a $500/month Bloomberg terminal add-on.
