Vitalik Buterin Proposes Onchain Gas Futures to Hedge Fee Spikes Ethereum ($ETH ) co founder Vitalik Buterin has proposed creating an onchain futures market for gas fees a mechanism that would let users lock in future transaction costs and hedge against volatility as Ethereum adoption grows. In a post on X, Buterin said the ecosystem needs “a good trustless onchain gas futures market,” especially as users keep asking whether current roadmap solutions can guarantee low gas fees long-term. How Gas Futures Would Work Similar to traditional commodity futures, Ethereum gas futures would allow users to buy gas at a fixed price for a specific time window. This gives certainty to anyone who needs predictable transaction costs traders, builders, apps, and institutions. A reliable gas futures market would: Show market expectations for future gas prices Allow users to hedge or prepay for gas in advance Help projects plan around predictable operating costs Current Gas Situation Ethereum gas fees in 2025 have dropped significantly: Simple transfers: 0.474 gwei (~$0.01) Token swaps: $0.16 NFT sales: $0.27 Bridging: $0.05 However, volatility remains. According to YCharts, the average fee in 2025 started at $1, peaked at $2.60, and fell as low as $0.18.

Vitalik Buterin Proposes Onchain Gas Futures to Hedge Fee Spikes

Ethereum ($ETH ) co founder Vitalik Buterin has proposed creating an onchain futures market for gas fees a mechanism that would let users lock in future transaction costs and hedge against volatility as Ethereum adoption grows.

In a post on X, Buterin said the ecosystem needs “a good trustless onchain gas futures market,” especially as users keep asking whether current roadmap solutions can guarantee low gas fees long-term.

How Gas Futures Would Work

Similar to traditional commodity futures, Ethereum gas futures would allow users to buy gas at a fixed price for a specific time window. This gives certainty to anyone who needs predictable transaction costs traders, builders, apps, and institutions.

A reliable gas futures market would:

Show market expectations for future gas prices

Allow users to hedge or prepay for gas in advance

Help projects plan around predictable operating costs

Current Gas Situation

Ethereum gas fees in 2025 have dropped significantly:

Simple transfers: 0.474 gwei (~$0.01)

Token swaps: $0.16

NFT sales: $0.27

Bridging: $0.05

However, volatility remains. According to YCharts, the average fee in 2025 started at $1, peaked at $2.60, and fell as low as $0.18.

Buterin believes an onchain futures market could stabilize expectations and make Ethereum more predictable for heavy-volume users.

Vitalik Buterin warns against Zcash token votingVitalik Buterin warned the Zcash community against adopting a voting system based on tokens, pointing out that it would shift governance towards short-term price incentives. He warned that systems relying on symbolic weights allow for the secret purchase of votes and concentrate power among whales while leaving small stakeholders effectively voiceless.

🚨 Vitalik Buterin on Ethereum Treasury Companies Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin says companies holding $ETH in their treasuries are helping more investors get exposure to Ethereum, even those who can’t buy and store ETH directly. But he also warned that if these companies start using too much leverage (borrowing against their ETH), it could turn into a dangerous “overleveraged game.” That means if ETH’s price drops sharply, it could trigger mass liquidations, cause big price crashes, and hurt Ethereum’s credibility. Currently, #Ethereum treasury companies hold over $11.7B worth of ETH, with the largest holders managing billions. ✅ Good for adoption and access ⚠️ Risky if leverage gets out of control @Ethereum_official #vitaliketh

🚨 Vitalik’s L2 Roadmap: Game-Changer or Centralization Risk? 🚨 Ethereum’s mastermind, Vitalik Buterin, just dropped a bombshell with his latest article, "A Simple L2 Security and Finalization Roadmap." While it promises a more efficient and cost-effective Layer 2 (L2) ecosystem, critics argue it could introduce new centralization risks and security trade-offs. Let’s break it down: 🔥 1. Data Expansion – Scaling or Overloading? The Pectra upgrade will boost Blob space to 6 units, with a mind-blowing expansion to 72 units planned via Fusaka by year-end. This could massively increase transaction throughput, but skeptics worry it might strain Ethereum’s core infrastructure and introduce unforeseen network vulnerabilities. ⚡ 2. Hybrid Proof System – Security or Centralized Control? Buterin envisions a mix of multi-signature mechanisms, optimistic proofs, ZK-proofs, and TEE hardware. If both ZK and TEE pass, transactions finalize instantly. If not, a seven-day challenge period kicks in. But here’s the catch: A "Security Committee" can intervene and upgrade proof logic with a 30-day delay—but who controls this committee? Some fear this "fast finalization" model could create single points of failure or favor centralized validators. 🧩 3. ZK Proof Aggregation – Efficiency or Monopoly? The plan introduces a standardized proof aggregation layer, letting multiple apps split ZK verification costs (~500,000 Gas per proof). Sounds great, right? But what happens if one dominant entity controls this aggregation? Could we see an oligopoly of powerful ZK proof aggregators controlling Ethereum’s L2 security? 🔮 The Endgame: Faster Cross-Chain, But at What Cost? Vitalik’s roadmap targets 1-hour cross-chain bridging and eventual removal of TEE reliance—but will Ethereum truly become more decentralized, or is it inching toward a permissioned system controlled by elite validators? Is this the revolution Ethereum needs, or a step toward hidden centralization? 🧐 Let the debates begin! #Write2Earn! #vitaliketh #BSCTrendingCoins
