Ethereum has always been a journey: a constantly evolving ecosystem powered by people who believe in building a more open and decentralized world. While the Ethereum Foundation (EF) may be a decade old, it remains willing to reinvent itself.<\/span><\/p>\n This year, EF embraced a new leadership model with dual Executive Directors. This design brings diverse and complementary perspectives, enhancing our ability to meet complex challenges. They are excited to embrace the opportunities and challenges ahead, guided by a deep commitment to Ethereum\u2019s core values and a vision grounded in stewardship, coordination, and long-term thinking.<\/span><\/p>\n Importantly, EF is not a two-headed carriage pulling in different directions. Our relationship is built on mutual respect, trust, and shared values. They collaborate closely, challenge each other constructively, and ultimately move forward as a united team with shared goals.<\/span><\/p>\n Looking ahead, they will be working with two pillars: Guiding Principles (our core values) and Objectives (our pursuit of impact and resilience). Technical excellence underpins all that they do and it\u2019s the foundation that enables us to deliver on our mission.<\/span><\/p>\n Our job as Executive Directors is to implement <\/span>EF\u2019s vision<\/span><\/a> in a constantly changing world. Our role includes strategic planning, ecosystem stewardship, team leadership, and operational oversight. All in support of Ethereum’s long-term success.<\/span><\/p>\n These values are the foundation that guide our technical choices, our support for the ecosystem, and our long-term vision for Ethereum as a public good.<\/span><\/p>\n While remembering these values, they\u2019ve set major directions for the next 12 months:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Together, that means improving mainnet and L2s interoperability and coodination, UX, DevEx, giving applications and L2s more presence and attention at Devcon, amplifying their messages via communication channels.<\/span><\/p>\n Beyond this, they understand that they need to accelerate journeys of developers, founders, institutions through the pathways towards building on the Eth network and adopting this technology. Ethereum Foundation has knowledge and leaders who can mentor, lead, attract, and onboard talent.<\/span><\/p>\n Ethereum starts the next chapter. The values remain unchanged: open source, censorship resistance, privacy, and security. The Ethereum Foundation changes – into an organization that will communicate more and more openly, an organization that will be willing to enter difficult dialogues without delay.<\/span><\/p>\n We will focus on speed of execution, accountability, clear goals, objectives, and metrics to track. We will be focused on the success of the Ethereum mainnet protocol. Ethereum mainnet will remain a global, neutral network, a protocol trusted to be trustless.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n We will focus on the success of Ethereum mainnet and the entire ecosystem – L2s that bring mass adoption and numerous benefits to the users, mainnet that stands as both a solid rock and a nimble network behind all the transactions and coordination mechanisms. We are excited about the journey – a journey through one of the most inspiring technological and societal shifts we will ever experience, a journey that we will embark on together – visionaries and down-to-earth builders.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n Ahead of us lies one year of scaling – scaling Ethereum mainnet (L1), supporting the success of L2 chains by providing them with the best architecture to scale, to secure their networks, and to bring confidence to their users. Ahead of us is a focus on making the entire ecosystem of chains feel like one by delivering the best UX, design, and interoperability, while achieving scaling through engineering excellence and cutting-edge research.<\/span><\/p>\n In the next few months, my priority will be on strengthening the EF\u2019s operations to support the ecosystem\u2019s growth. An adaptable and capable foundation helps us better serve Ethereum\u2019s long-term mission.<\/span><\/p>\n As we move with sharper focus, one of our goals is to better support Ethereum\u2019s application layer. We will support builders and users by improving the developer and user experience, clarifying standards, strengthening ecosystems, and smoothing the journey from ideas to live applications.<\/span><\/p>\n We are working to improve how we plan, prioritize, and coordinate across teams within EF and across the broader ecosystem, keeping our efforts aligned with community needs and Ethereum\u2019s cypherpunk spirit. Strengthening EF is only one part of the transition. The real momentum comes from the energy and creativity of the global Ethereum ecosystem.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n Ethereum is not a monolith. It is a living, breathing network of communities, builders, researchers, artists, educators, and dreamers. It is global, diverse, and proudly decentralized.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The team is continually inspired by the creativity and resilience of the ecosystem. EF will continue to show up where they\u2019re most needed, but also make space when the ecosystem flourishes on its own. This is a community-led future.<\/span><\/p>\n The road ahead is full of possibilities. Ethereum has already transformed what’s possible in technology, finance, governance, and beyond. To everyone building, teaching, researching, experimenting, and imagining new futures: thank you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Together, we are building something bigger than any one team, project, or generation. We\u2019re honored to walk this path with you, and we\u2019re excited for all that\u2019s ahead.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n At<\/span> OQTACORE<\/span><\/a>,<\/span> we specialize in building high-performance blockchain solutions that are scalable, secure, and tailored to real-world use cases.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n We help businesses turn complex systems into efficient, reliable, and future-ready products.<\/span><\/p>\n Learn more:<\/span><\/p>\n Services<\/span><\/a> |<\/span> Cases<\/span><\/a> |<\/span> X\/Twitter<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n EXPLORE MORE:<\/strong><\/p>\n The Ethereum Foundation is entering a new phase focused on innovation, sustainability, and expanding the Ethereum ecosystem.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_mo_disable_npp":"","yasr_overall_rating":0,"yasr_post_is_review":"","yasr_auto_insert_disabled":"","yasr_review_type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[65],"class_list":["post-1880","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-ethereum"],"acf":{"image":1882},"yasr_visitor_votes":{"number_of_votes":0,"sum_votes":0,"stars_attributes":{"read_only":false,"span_bottom":false}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/oqtacore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1880","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/oqtacore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/oqtacore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oqtacore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oqtacore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1880"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/oqtacore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1880\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1961,"href":"https:\/\/oqtacore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1880\/revisions\/1961"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/oqtacore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1880"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oqtacore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1880"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oqtacore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1880"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}<\/span>Principles and Focus Areas<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n
