Ethereum focuses on privacy and security, not speed.
Vitalik Buterin outlined the key direction for Ethereum's development — the priority is on stability, decentralization, and the security of the network, rather than speed.
Ethereum is viewed as a foundational layer for data storage and management of digital objects — from assets and NFTs to DAOs that operate independently of specific teams.
Key points:
• The main goal of the network is security and independence from individual teams, not maximum speed.
• Ethereum is a foundational layer for data and digital objects (assets, NFTs, DAOs) managed by code.
• ZKVMs may become the basis for verification by 2028 without sacrificing decentralization.
• ZK technologies are approaching real-time proofs of EVM execution.
• Ethereum is preparing for quantum threats (hash-based and lattice-based signatures).
• The short-term focus is on smart wallets, privacy, and new signature standards (EIP-8141).
• Scaling is divided into data layer (PeerDAS) and computation.
• In the long term — formal verification of security and mathematical proofs (including AI).
• L2 without new use cases and with centralization — makes no sense.
