Two rival Ethereum proposals aim to stop Glamsterdam breaking old contracts
Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
Two competing proposals are aiming to prevent Ethereum’s upcoming Glamsterdam upgrade from breaking existing smart contracts through its planned gas-cost changes. The proposals take different approaches to what contracts can observe and what users ultimately pay, reflecting concern that altering gas accounting could disrupt deployed applications. The debate matters because Glamsterdam’s gas reforms could affect a broad set of live contracts and the fees users pay to interact with them. What to watch next is which approach, if either, gains support from Ethereum developers and how the final design is incorporated into the upgrade.
