# Ethereum Daily — September 4, 2026

# Ethereum Daily — September 4, 2026

Covering roughly September 3 – September 4, 2026.

**Roadmap.** The All Core Devs Consensus call (ACDC #186) that was billed as the decision point for the Glamsterdam Sepolia fork date took place yesterday, September 3 — but no public readout or call summary has surfaced yet as of this morning's publishing, so whether the proposed September 28 Sepolia date (still targeting ePBS, Block-Level Access Lists, and a ~200M gas limit) was formally confirmed remains unconfirmed. Client-team preference lists for the fork's remaining scope are still due September 10, and mainnet activation stays pointed at Q4 2026. Worth checking back once a writeup lands.

**Governance.** No material new development since yesterday. EIP-8141 (Frame Transactions) remains "Scheduled for Inclusion" for the Hegotá upgrade, and the interoperability question with the rival EIP-8130 proposal — set to launch on Base ahead of any mainnet account abstraction — is still unresolved.

**Institutional and corporate adoption.** New today: Mint Incorporation (NASDAQ: MIMI) announced a binding consulting agreement with CURRENC Capital to pursue issuer-sponsored tokenization of its Class A ordinary shares on both Ethereum and Solana. Unlike derivative or synthetic stock tokens, Mint itself is the active participant authorizing the onchain placement, with voting rights and ownership structure unchanged. The company gave no timeline or specifics on what portion of shares would be tokenized, and cautioned that no trading market is guaranteed to develop.

**Stats.** ETH is trading around $2,511, up roughly 5% on the day and extending well past yesterday's ~$2,386 level — the move has it approaching its 200-day EMA with a 50/100-day EMA convergence some traders are reading as a bullish setup. The validator set kept climbing: 905,998 active validators (up from 905,286), with 42.7 million ETH staked (35.03% of supply, up from 34.99%). The entry queue grew to 2,110,424 ETH at a 36-day, 15-hour wait. The exit queue stayed calm at 256 ETH with a 6-minute wait, confirming yesterday's brief exit-queue spike was a one-day blip. Gas ticked up to 0.078 gwei average (from 0.042 gwei) alongside the price move. DeFi TVL rose to $49.65 billion, tracking the ETH price gain. ETF flows: September 2 revised to a $48.2 million net outflow, but September 3 flipped back to a $2.9 million net inflow; cumulative net inflows since launch stand at roughly $13.02 billion.
