Deep Tide TechFlow News, February 19th, the Ethereum Foundation released the 2026 Protocol Priority Update, which outlines three main tracks:1. Scalability (unifying L1 execution capacity and data availability expansion, including increasing gas limits, blob extensions, and state sharding, such as EIP-7928 and zkEVM productionization)2. Improving User Experience (focusing on native account abstraction like EIP-7701/EIP-8141 and interoperability frameworks, supporting seamless cross-L2 interactions and quantum-resistant signatures)3. Strengthening L1 Layer (ensuring security, censorship resistance, and resilience, including post-quantum readiness, EIP-7805, and statelessness)Additionally, the next major upgrade, Glamsterdam, is targeted for 2026.
