Ethereum Foundation Appoints Hsiao-Wei Wang and Tomasz Stańczak as Co-Executive Directors
The Ethereum Foundation has appointed Hsiao-Wei Wang and Tomasz Stańczak as co-executive directors. This follows Aya Miyaguchi's transition to president of the EF. The leadership changes are part of a broader discussion within the community regarding the EF's impact on the market, particularly amid concerns over the performance of ETH compared to other cryptocurrencies.
- Wang has been with the EF since 2017, contributing to research on sharding and the Merge.
- Stańczak founded Nerthermind, a major Ethereum client software.
- The EF aims to evolve into a robust base layer for global finance and software.
Additional Changes
Former EF researcher Danny Ryan will join Etherealize, a project focused on integrating ETH into traditional finance. The initiative is led by Vivek Raman, who aims to promote ETH as a significant crypto asset among institutions.
Ryan stated his goal is to establish a new Ethereum institution centered on real-world use cases.
