Fault proofs are coming to Base mainnet on October 30th, marking a key milestone on the path to decentralization. This means anyone can monitor and permissionlessly challenge invalid withdrawals, removing the need for a trusted third party.
The Base team has been collaborating closely with Optimism to bring fault proofs to Base and ensure a safe upgrade. Alongside the upgrade, withdrawals on Base that are pending when the upgrade occurs will need to be re-proven.

Base is increasing the per block gas target from 14 to 15 Mgas/s as part of continued, planned scaling efforts to bring a billion people onchain.
For builders and almost all Base users, no changes are necessary. But if you're running a Base Node and notice any latency after the increase:
1. Monitor CPU and Disk I/O usage 2. Enhance disk throughput and use disks with lower read/write latency (NVMe SSDs recommended) 3. Improve CPU, focusing on single-core speed
You can also stop by the #node-operators channel in the Base Discord (https://base.org/discord) if you have any questions and we'll be happy to help you there!
