Planned Ethereum hard fork that follows Glamsterdam on the protocol roadmap; its contents are still being decided by core developers.
Crypto's week has U.S. CPI due Oct 14 at a forecast 3.6% and PPI on Oct 15 at 5.3%, with $116.5 million of token unlocks. The 1.7-point gap between them is down from 2.0 on the prior readings, ahead of a Fed meeting where rates are expected to hold.
Reality
Ethereum's draft EIP-7906 lets transactions reject bad trade results, but only a floor set by someone other than the trade's builder protects users. What the proposal is worth to a trader depends on whether wallets and account providers write their own limits from prices the app does not control.
Reality
Ethereum will activate Glamsterdam, likely its largest fork since the Merge according to a core developer, on the Sepolia testnet on Oct. 6. It reprices gas and lays groundwork for higher layer-1 gas limits, with no date yet for the Hoodi testnet or mainnet.

Ethereum Foundation says EIP-7906, a check that could have reverted the $1.5 billion Bybit theft, will not ship before 2027. Its own post concedes the check cannot stop the stolen-key and social-engineering attacks behind most of 2026's losses.

Vitalik Buterin's "cryptographic world computer" post sets a target of 8-to-32-second finality against the roughly 200 seconds 12 confirmations take today. The forks after Hegota would rebuild verification, consensus and block construction.
Reality
Vitalik Buterin says Ethereum's Hegotá upgrade, planned for 2027, is likely the last fork that someone who knew Ethereum in 2015 would recognize. The work he expects to follow has no dates yet, so ETH holders are pricing a long rebuild of the protocol off a single milestone.

Talks to reconcile Base's EIP-8130 with Ethereum's EIP-8141 broke down last week. Both chains will now ship their own native smart accounts. Derek Chiang, who co-authored Ethereum's proposal, says wallets carry the burden.

L2 pushback on EIP-8141 Frame Transactions keeps native AA out of Hegota's headliner slot for now, and the Ethereum Foundation has dropped its Poseidon hash for standard ones.
