Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin outlined a vision for Ethereum's evolution beyond traditional blockchain architecture, describing the network's trajectory toward becoming a 'cryptographic world computer' by 2030. He stated that next year's Hegota upgrade will likely be Ethereum's last 'normal' fork before advanced cryptography takes over.
Onchain prediction market protocol Trueo announced it will move its primary deployment from Base Layer 2 to Ethereum mainnet, citing greater integration potential and network effects. Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin welcomed the move, praising Trueo as an 'ethical' market contender.
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin published an updated Ethereum Improvement Proposal (EIP) 8141 on Sunday, proposing changes to how wallets sign transactions, batch operations, and handle payments ahead of the Hegotá upgrade.
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin released an updated roadmap on Monday that significantly elevates quantum safety and privacy as top priorities, while deprioritizing or dropping other initiatives like Verkle trees and state expiry in favor of alternative constructions.
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has released an updated technical roadmap that elevates quantum-resistant cryptography and privacy features as top priorities, marking a significant shift from the network's 2023 development plan. The new roadmap also emphasizes native rollups and incorporates AI-assisted formal verification while downgrading or replacing some previous initiatives like verifiable delay functions.
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin published an updated roadmap for 'Lean Ethereum,' a comprehensive 3-4 year rebuild that will replace nearly every major component of the protocol. The overhaul, described as the network's biggest upgrade since the Merge, prioritizes quantum resistance and enhanced validator privacy.
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin responded to community criticism by announcing the Ethereum Foundation will become a 'smaller ship' focused on CROPS (core research), sell less ETH, and expand its board to reduce his personal influence. The announcement comes amid an exodus of top researchers from the foundation.
