Crypto : Buterin's surprise exit could change everything
Ethereum is making a strategic pivot as subtle as it is radical in the crypto universe. As the network prepares to face colossal technical challenges, its Foundation is reshuffling the power dynamics. The goal: to free Vitalik Buterin from operational burdens to propel him toward unexplored horizons. A move that could redefine the very DNA of blockchain, balancing between ambitious excess and calculated pragmatism.
In Brief
• Ethereum revises its governance to free Vitalik Buterin from operational tasks.
• The Foundation focuses its efforts on scaling, Layer 2 solutions, and user experience.
• An ambitious project even considers replacing the EVM with RISC-V architecture.
A Governance Rethought to Unleash Crypto Innovation
Tomasz K. Stańczak, the new co-executive director of the Ethereum Foundation, unveiled this restructuring in a striking post. “The ambition is there. The crypto community shares it. But now, everything will depend on the focus of the technical teams,” he sums up. Behind these words lies an observation: Buterin, though an untouchable visionary figure, must escape day-to-day crises to devote himself to fundamental research.
