Ethereum

In the world of crypto, Ethereum is the source of innovation, where DeFi, NFTs, Layer 2, and numerous new technologies were created. One of its co-founders, Vitalik Buterin, is a key opinion leader in the crypto world. Ethereum launched a series of important upgrades to transition from proof-of-work (PoW) to proof-of-stake (PoS), which may help to break down the Blockchain Scalability Trilemma and makes Ethereum a “ultra-sound money”.

From EIP-7987 to L1 zkEVM: Ethereum L1 Scaling and Advancement

In 2025, Ethereum will shift its strategic focus from Layer 2 (L2) solutions to Layer 1 (L1). EIP-7987 will limit gas for individual transactions, and the L1 zkEVM will actively overhaul the execution layer. In conjunction with ePBS, stateless clients, and the RISC-V virtual machine, Ethereum aims to boost Mainnet performance by one to two orders of magnitude within five years. This will be done while maintaining decentralization and security as core attributes at all levels.
