Ethereum‘s very own Vitalik Buterin recently made a blog post, declaring that if you thought the blockchain’s future was all about Layer-2 (L2) protocols, think again. Buterin believes that increasing L1 gas limits will help Ethereum scale more effectively while keeping the ‘pure’ essence of the blockchain intact. Who knew gas limits could sound so revolutionary, right?
In his post, Buterin addressed the problem of dealing with those pesky “bad actors” lurking around the blockchain. The solution? Quarantine the bad ERC-20 tokens and give users a straightforward way to exit sketchy L2 projects. It’s like a digital bouncer at the club making sure only the cool tokens get in. 🕶️
Ethereum’s Gas Limits: More Than Just a Boring Technicality
Let’s be real: when Vitalik Buterin talks, we listen. He’s been with Ethereum from the start, and like any great visionary, he’s not afraid to make bold moves. Ethereum is currently stuck in a bit of a rut—leadership drama, community drama, price drama—basically, drama everywhere. So, naturally, Buterin has taken to the blogosphere to propose an upgrade that could change everything. And no, it’s not a new NFT art collection; it’s gas limits. Sigh. But trust him, this matters.
“Even in a world where most usage and applications are on L2, there is value in significantly scaling, because it enables simpler and more secure patterns of application development. This post will not attempt to argue… that more applications in general should be on L1. Rather, the goal is to argue that eg. ~10x scaling on L1 has long-term value,” he said.

Buteren didn’t stop there. He argued that higher gas limits would also benefit wallet operations and even proof submissions. This is all great and well, but let’s be real—will it catch on? Only time will tell. But the man is confident. He’s defending a 10x gas limit increase, which he claims will be a huge boon for Ethereum in the next two years, even as the network faces some pretty tough challenges.
At the end of the day, Vitalik’s not just tossing out pie-in-the-sky proposals. His confidence in Ethereum, despite the current drama, shows just how dedicated he is. And while some investors might have backed off, others are just buying the dip like it’s the Black Friday of cryptocurrency. If nothing else, this proposal demonstrates Buterin’s long-term vision—and let’s face it, the man’s got a plan. Can’t fault him for that. 💡
