Ethereum Responds to Criticism During Consensus 2025
At Consensus 2025 in Toronto, Ethereum broke its silence. In the face of criticism regarding its governance, technical roadmap, and talent drain, Paul Brody (EY) and Josh Stark (Ethereum Foundation) defended a shared vision: that of a complex, yet fundamentally robust network. As the price of ETH stagnates and competition intensifies, Ethereum leaders are betting on the long term and reminding that markets will eventually catch up with technology, not the other way around.
In Summary
