Fusaka 60m Default Gas Limit

At this week’s ACDE #221, Ethereum core developers agreed to set the default mainnet gas limit in Fusaka client releases to 60 million gas per block, raising it from the current 45 million. Increasing the gas limit allows each block to carry more data, thereby improving transaction throughput. Gas limit increases occur automatically once more than 50% of validators signal for an increase. Developers are also preparing for the Fusaka upgrade to activate on testnets throughout October. Teku, Lodestar, and Besu have already shipped testnet-compatible releases, with the remaining clients expected to follow in the coming days. After that, the Ethereum Foundation will issue an official announcement. If testnet forks proceed smoothly, Fusaka is scheduled for mainnet activation on December 3rd.

SharpLink Tokenizing SBET On Ethereum

SharpLink Gaming, the world’s second-largest corporate holders of ETH with 838k ETH and 3,815 ETH in staking rewards earned, announced plans to natively tokenize its SEC-registered $SBET shares on Ethereum. The tokenization will use Superstate’s platform, with Superstate serving as Digital Transfer Agent. Tokenized SBET shares will be legally equivalent to traditional equity but can be held in self-custodied wallets and integrated into onchain products. SharpLink and Superstate will explore compliant secondary market trading of tokenized SBET shares on AMMs and other uses across DeFi protocols.

Cloudflare Unveils NET Dollar Stablecoin

Cloudflare, the largest Content Delivery Network (CDN) provider, introduced NET Dollar, a USD-backed stablecoin designed for the agentic web. Designed to support microtransactions, pay-per-use models, and automated agent-to-agent payments, NET Dollar aims to modernize the Internet’s financial rails and incentives. The announcement follows Cloudflare’s and Coinbase’s launch of the x402 Foundation earlier this week, which aims to establish the x402 payments protocol as a universal standard for AI-driven payments across industries and platforms. Cloudflare did not specify which blockchain the stablecoin will launch on.

CCTP V2 Goes Live On Ink

CCTP V2, the latest version of Circle’s Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol, is now live on Ink, enabling fast, secure, and capital-efficient USDC transfers using a burn-and-mint model, without relying on liquidity pools. The CCTP V2 protocol features smart contract hooks for post-transfer actions. Ink now joins Ethereum, Base, Avalanche, Arbitrum, and Linea as supported CCTP V2 chains. Circle also deployed support for native USDC on Ink, Kraken’s Ethereum Layer-2 chain built on the OP Stack.
