Odaily Planet Daily News Vitalik Buterin posted on the X platform that a large-scale change is currently being made to the leadership structure of the Ethereum Foundation, which has been going on for nearly a year. This change mainly aims to achieve the following goals:
- Improve the technical expertise of the leadership of the Ethereum Foundation;
- Improve the two-way communication and connection between the leadership of the Ethereum Foundation and new and old participants in the ecosystem. Our responsibility is to support: users (individuals and institutions), application developers, wallets, L2;
- Introduce fresh talents to improve execution capabilities and speed;
- More actively support application developers to ensure that important values and inalienable rights (especially privacy, open source, and resistance to censorship) are real for users, including the application layer;
- Continue to increase the use of decentralized and privacy technologies and the Ethereum chain, including for payment and fund management.
Non-necessary goals include:
Implement a certain ideological/atmosphere shift;
Start actively lobbying regulators and powerful politicians (especially in the United States, more focused on major powers), and risk damaging Ethereum's position as a global neutral platform;
- Become an arena for vested interests;
- Become a highly centralized organization, and even become the "protagonist" of Ethereum.
