Ethereum is launching its most ambitious upgrade ever.
Ethereum Foundation researcher Justin Drake has unveiled Lean Ethereum, a plan to transform the network over the next 10 years.
What's promised:
✅ Massive network acceleration without expensive and slow transactions (10,000,000 TPS on Layer 1 (now ~15 TPS)
- 1,000,000 TPS at L2)
✅ Ethereum will become unhackable even for quantum computers
✅ More modularity and flexibility for developers (new EVM 2. 0 virtual machine (possibly on RISC-V)
✅ Ecosystem will be cleaner, more minimalistic and easier to scale
✅ Less dependency on external solutions, more resilience (Beacon Chain 2.0 and new consensus)
