Ethereum Foundation (EF) co-executive director Tomasz Stanczak has announced that Vitalik Buterin will focus on the extensive Layer 1 scaling roadmap. The Ethereum co-founder recently published insights towards community proposals on privacy and zkVMs, aligning with the decision. This comes amid heated competition for rival blockchains in terms of transaction speed and efficiency.
Buterin’s Proposals Will Always Carry Weight- EF
The recent change in the EF leadership has led to certain changes that could fuel improved developments. In a recent X post, Stanczak informed the community that Vitalik Buterin would move towards research, particularly the L1 scaling roadmap. This is a shift away from daily coordination and crisis response to steer innovation.
“I want to make clear that Vitalik’s proposals will always carry weight, but they are intended to start conversations and encourage progress in difficult research areas. Community review may refine them significantly or even reject them. We want the same freedom for our other researchers, who show courage by posing difficult questions and suggesting alternative approaches…”
The Foundation also encourages devs to contribute to the roadmap and scale the user experience. In recent months, many users have posed questions about the Foundation and the network’s mechanisms, sparking further debates. Last week, Buterin highlighted key proposals to Ethereum’s privacy. According to the release, key areas include on-chain privacy, read privacy, network-level anonymity, and more.
To achieve this roadmap, the network will need to implement privacy tools like Railgun into existing wallets. Such a move will introduce a “shielded balance” option, eliminating the need for a separate privacy wallet. Buterin’s proposal also involves a controversial “one address per application” model to remove public links and aid privacy. Since the release, debates on privacy and several models have lingered in community spaces.
EF Charts Course For Innovation
Stanczak added that the Ethereum Foundation will prioritize its near-term goals in the next two protocol upgrades. This revolves around user experience and scaling challenges amid growing competition. “We are concentrating on Layer 1 scaling, support for Layer 2 scaling, and significant UX improvements (including interoperability) in the Pectra, Fusaka, and Glamsterdam upgrades.”
Several users predict Ethereum’s network growth, which is expected to lead to a price increase for the asset. Ether has struggled this year due to negative macro sentiments, compounded by reduced volumes. At the time of writing, Ether price changes hands at $1,626.
