Deep Dive
1. Fusaka Testnet Upgrades (9 December 2025)
Overview: Ethereum developers advanced the Fusaka testnet to improve gas fee precision and scalability, with a participation rate of 99% among client teams (Binance News). The BPO1 milestone was moved to 9 December 2025, focusing on optimizing transaction throughput.
What this means: This is neutral for GAS, as upgrades primarily target Ethereum’s infrastructure. However, cross-chain interoperability could indirectly benefit Neo’s ecosystem if adopted.
2. Gas ID Expansion (Q4 2025)
Overview: ETHGas’s “Gas ID” system, which aggregates gas spending across wallets, saw 200,000+ users by October 2025. A 22 October update allowed regenerating Gas IDs to claim “Bonus Beans,” incentivizing broader adoption (ETHGas).
What this means: This is bullish for GAS if integrated into Neo’s ecosystem, as it simplifies user onboarding and could drive transactional demand. Risks include reliance on third-party platforms like ETHGas.
3. N3 Network Incentives (2026)
Overview: Neo’s N3 MainNet, launched in 2021, continues prioritizing governance decentralization. Long-term plans include expanding staking rewards for NEO holders and council members, though specifics remain undefined (Neo Smart Economy).
What this means: This is cautiously bullish, as enhanced incentives might attract stakers, but delays or unclear timelines could dampen momentum.
Conclusion
GAS’s roadmap balances technical upgrades (Fusaka testnet) and user-centric features (Gas ID), though direct Neo-led developments are sparse. Monitoring Ethereum’s gas innovations and Neo’s governance updates will be critical. How might Neo’s ecosystem integrate cross-chain gas solutions to stay competitive?
