BlockBeats News, January 8th, Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin posted an article using a metaphor to describe Ethereum's vision and positioning. Ethereum is similar to BitTorrent (a peer-to-peer network), combining decentralization and mass adoption. Ethereum aims to do the same but with a consensus mechanism. Ethereum is also similar to the Linux operating system. Linux is free and open-source software that never compromises, quietly relied upon by billions of people and businesses globally, including governments. There are many Linux-based operating systems that seek mass adoption, as well as highly pure, minimalist, and technically elegant Linux distributions (such as Arch) that focus on empowering users rather than comfort.We must ensure that Ethereum L1 serves as a financial (eventually including identity, social, governance, etc.) home for individuals and organizations seeking higher autonomy, enabling them to directly access the full power of the network without relying on intermediaries. Similar to the Linux example, serving a large number of people with value can be compatible, and it can even be simultaneously loved and trusted by global enterprises.
