Ethereum Foundation Unveils 10-Year Roadmap for Scalability and Security
Ethereum celebrates its 10th anniversary with a new roadmap called the “Ethereum Lean Plan.” Key objectives include:
- Achieving 100% uptime and resilience against nation-states and supercomputers.
- Scaling to 10,000 transactions per second (TPS) on layer 1 and 1 million TPS on layer 2 using advanced tools like zkVMs and Data Availability Sampling (DAS).
- Implementing a "lean consensus" for quicker transaction confirmations and enhanced data handling.
- Developing SNARK-friendly code for the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) to reduce confirmation times from minutes to seconds.
- Advancing cryptography to protect against quantum computing threats.
Additionally, Ethereum's reserves have reached $10 billion, with corporate holdings totaling 2.73 million ETH. As of the report, ETH is trading at $3,610, reflecting a 47% increase over the past month. The Foundation refers to this vision as a “generational oath” to ensure Ethereum's longevity and security for future users and developers.
