Ethereum has increased the block Gas limit from 45 million to 60 million.

On November 27, according to The Block, based on data from GasLimit.pics, the block Gas limit of Ethereum has been increased from 45 million to 60 million following calls from users and developers to expand capacity. Toni Wahrstätter, a researcher at the Ethereum Foundation, announced this adjustment on the X platform, stating that it is the result of a year-long effort by the community aimed at enhancing the processing capacity of Ethereum's base layer. He wrote, “Just one year after the community began pushing for an increase in the Gas limit, Ethereum is now operating under a block Gas limit of 60 million. This means a 2-fold increase has been achieved in one year - and this is just the beginning.” The adjustment took effect automatically on November 25, as more than half of the validators had issued support signals, meeting the threshold required by Ethereum's current consensus rules.
