ETH Ethereum developers arrange "Amsterdam" upgrade
The Ethereum development team has determined the activation time for the next major upgrade to the network-codenamed "Amsterdam." The upgrade will be available on the Sepolia Test Network on October 6.
The Ethereum Foundation said on Monday that before the upgrade is activated, Sepolia node operators must simultaneously update their execution layer and consensus layer clients.
Core Improvement: Establishing Proposer-Builder Separation Mechanism
An important change to the "Amsterdam" upgrade is the formal inclusion of the "Proposer-Builder Separation (PBS) mechanism in the agreement. This change aims to integrate the handover process between dedicated block builders and verifiers into the Ethereum underlying protocol, thereby reducing reliance on third-party middleware.
Other key updates
This upgrade will also introduce Block-level Access Lists to record the accounts used and storage locations in each block. In addition, the Gas pricing mechanism will also be adjusted to more accurately reflect the actual cost of creating and accessing data on Ethereum.
The foundation warns that smart contracts that rely on fixed Gas subsidies or hard-coded Gas limits may need to be adjusted accordingly.
Follow-up roadmap
Currently, developers have not announced the specific deployment date of the upgrade on the Hoodi testnet, which focuses on verifiers, and the main network.
开发团队的目标是在“阿姆斯特丹”升级之后，于2027年推出名为“赫戈塔”（Hegotá）的下一轮升级。以太坊联合创始人Vitalik Buterin周日表示，“赫戈塔”可能是网络最后一次常规的“硬分叉”。此后，开发重心将转向递归STARKs、自动化形式化验证、优化的共识机制以及抗量子密码学等前沿领域。
