Vitalik Buterin proposes replacing Ethereum’s EVM with RISC-V, an open-source instruction set, to fix long-standing limitations in scalability and ZK support.
The EVM, core to ETH since launch, struggles with modern demands - especially zero knowledge proofs. Buterin argues RISC-V can streamline the execution layer, making Ethereum faster, leaner & more modular.
Options on the table:
➡️ Native support for both EVM & RISC-V contracts
➡️ EVM on a RISC-V-based interpreter
➡️ Making interpreters part of the core protocol
Potential 100x speed gains for ZK-EVMs. A turning point in ETH's architecture.
