Vitalik Buterin Highlights Progress Toward Web3's Decentralized Vision

According to Odaily, Vitalik Buterin recently shared on platform X that the 2014 vision for Web3 aimed to create a permissionless decentralized application ecosystem. Despite being overshadowed by various "meta" and "narrative" elements, the core technology has been strengthening. Ethereum has transitioned to Proof of Stake (PoS) and is scaling, while ZK-EVM and PeerDAS are effectively realizing the "sharding" vision. The data layer protocol Whisper has evolved into Waku, supporting applications like Status, and IPFS is excelling in decentralized file retrieval. Buterin believes that all prerequisites for Web3's original vision are now in place, signaling the time for decentralized development. He cited Fileverse as an exemplary application, utilizing Ethereum and Gnosis Chain for handling names and accounts. He concluded by stating that a decentralized renaissance is imminent.
