With its latest upgrade, which is currently gaining notable attention across the community, the leading network could see a major flip in its scaling narrative.<\/p>\n<h2>New Levels Of Efficiency For The Ethereum Network<\/h2>\n<p>As the market sees a fresh wave of adoption, a pivotal moment is approaching for <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/ethereum-one-of-the-cleanest\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">Ethereum<\/a>, which is centered around its next major upgrade. Anticipation is already building around this upgrade, dubbed Glamsterdam, as it begins to take shape.<\/p>\n<p>The proposed upgrade is anticipated to be crucial in furthering the network\u2019s long-term strategy, with an emphasis on enhancing scalability, efficiency, and the general user experience. <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/ETH_Daily\/status\/2051489803951374480?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">According<\/a> to Ethereum Daily on X, the upcoming upgrade could be much bigger than what most people anticipate.<\/p>\n<p>Over the years, the primary <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/everstake_pool\/status\/2051646434680701332?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">scaling narrative<\/a> of ETH has revolved around its layer 2 solutions. However, with the latest Glamsterdam upgrade, this narrative becomes bigger as the ETH network is improving the base layer in addition to growing around it. If this upgrade plays out well, Ethereum layer 1 will become faster, more powerful, and more sustainable, without the need to sacrifice decentralization.<\/p>\n<p>After a week-long core developer workshop in Svalbard, Ethereum contributors aligned on a bold target. This prediction states that the gas limit on <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/ethereum-showcases-dominance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">the ETH network<\/a> will reach $200 million following the inception of Glamsterdam, which is a key landmark in the network\u2019s journey.<\/p>\n<p>What this means is that the Ethereum layer 1 solution might be gearing up for a major jump, with increased capacity. Meanwhile, the upgrade continues to protect decentralization, node accessibility, and network health in the long term.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Transaction Count On ETH Hits A New Milestone<\/h2>\n<p>Prior to the anticipated Glasterdam upgrade, activity on the Ethereum network is already booming, with transactions spiking to notable levels. Everstake, a leading global non-custodial staking infrastructure provider, has <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/everstake_pool\/status\/2051646434680701332?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">outlined <\/a>a new milestone for ETH in terms of <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/ethereum-daily-transactions-spike\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">transaction counts<\/a> carried out on the network.<\/p>\n<p>Data shows that the network closed April with an astonishing 72.83 million transactions, marking its highest monthly volume ever recorded. Such growth highlights increasing adoption and reinforces ETH\u2019s position within the broader blockchain landscape.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-679322\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Ethereum-chart-from-Everstake.jpeg?w=980&amp;resize=980%2C395\" alt=\"Ethereum\" width=\"980\" height=\"395\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Ethereum-chart-from-Everstake.jpeg?w=3580 3580w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Ethereum-chart-from-Everstake.jpeg?w=640 640w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Ethereum-chart-from-Everstake.jpeg?w=768 768w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Ethereum-chart-from-Everstake.jpeg?w=980 980w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Ethereum-chart-from-Everstake.jpeg?w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Ethereum-chart-from-Everstake.jpeg?w=2048 2048w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Ethereum-chart-from-Everstake.jpeg?w=750 750w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Ethereum-chart-from-Everstake.jpeg?w=1140 1140w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Ethereum-chart-from-Everstake.jpeg?w=3000 3000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 980px) 100vw, 980px\"><\/p>\n<p>In Everstake\u2019s view, adoption is not about hype, but rather, it is about the numbers on-chain.
