Base is increasing the per block gas target from 15 to 16.5 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!

The Sepolia batcher was not submitting valid batches for a period of 2 hours on 11/27 between 06:00 and 09:00 UTC. Safe head feel behind unsafe for the duration of the incident.

The Holocene hardfork on Base Sepolia (Testnet) will occur on Tuesday, November 26, 2024, at 15:00:00 UTC. All testnet node operators must update to v0.11.0 before this activation timestamp or they will halt when the network activates Holocene: https://github.com/base-org/node/releases/tag/v0.11.0
Note: v0.11.0 is an optional update for Base mainnet node operators. It is only required for testnet nodes.
