Abstract
This proposal rebases Ethereum’s gas unit by a factor of 1,000 to enable high-precision metering without introducing fractional gas. All gas-related parameters and variables are increased by a factor of 1,000. This reduces rounding errors that arise when repricing EVM operations and future-proofs gas costs as hardware improves and state access remains costly, while avoiding major changes in the internal logic of the EVM.
