[Vitalik: Ethereum Nodes Can Now Sync in Half a Day, Glamsterdam Upgrade to Further Improve Performance] According to Jinsecai, on September 26, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin stated that Ethereum nodes can now sync in half a day; with aggressive configurations, disk usage can be reduced to under 0.5 TB, primarily due to EIP-4444 and ongoing optimizations by client teams for snapshot syncing. The upcoming Glamsterdam upgrade will further enhance node synchronization, and Nimbus’s new syncing protocol has already adopted these mechanisms. Vitalik also noted that users can point their wallet’s remote procedure call (RPC) to a local node, but must properly configure the node’s RPC functionality; some decentralized applications within browsers may not effectively support local RPC, and certain apps have hardcoded RPC endpoints to their own servers. The next step for the Kohaku command-line tool is further integration of privacy protocols, with some early development already completed.

Summary
Ethereum news: Vitalik Buterin said Ethereum nodes can now sync in under 12 hours. Disk usage can drop below 0.5 TB with aggressive setups, thanks to EIP-4444 and snapshot sync improvements. The upcoming Glamsterdam upgrade will further enhance node performance, with Nimbus already testing the new protocol. Users can now run local RPC nodes with proper setup, although some dApps still rely on centralized servers. Ethereum ecosystem news: The Kohaku tool is in early development, aiming to integrate privacy protocols.
