Ethereum is betting on Fusaka to sprint into the giga-gas era. PeerDAS can boost L2 capacity by 8 times, and the Gas Limit is being pushed directly to 60M, making the scaling pace look quite aggressive.

But there's a seriously underestimated problem: the more aggressively the network scales, the greater the pressure on validators.

Why? Because validators are still working in the dumbest way—recalculating every single transaction from scratch. A workload of 60M gas might still be manageable, but if we really aim for 1B gas, validators’ computational bottleneck will break before network bandwidth does. As scaling accelerates, the underlying execution architecture’s contradictions are being amplified.
