Base has activated its Cobalt hard fork, introducing conditional transactions, dynamic upgrade scheduling, and on-chain TEE signer registration.

The upcoming Ethereum Glamsterdam upgrade aims to nearly triple block gas limits and reduce transaction fees by an estimated 78.6% through protocol-level scaling improvements.

The Ethereum Foundation has set a fixed deadline of December 2029 to make the network quantum-resistant to protect assets from future quantum computing threats.
