Ethereum Foundation Director Behind Vitalik Buterin’s New ETH Plan

Under Bestians guidance, EF will become a smaller, leaner. It will become more focused organization centered on Ethereums core “cypherpunk” values. This includes decentralization, privacy, censorship resistance, openness, and security.

As Vitalik announced, rather than chasing 250ms latency, 1M TPS goal and aggressive business development, Ethereums goal is to become “deeply impressive” technically. For this, the organization is set to run through initiatives. It includes AI-assisted formal verification to make Ethereum nearly bug-free, “available chain consensus”, and intermediary minimization.

This comes after a week when Vitalik outlined plans to improve Ethereum‘s Native Privacy. FOCIL, EIP-8141, smart contract wallets, and specialized Layer-2 networks are few components now set to become part of Ethereum’s long-term scaling roadmap.

This is something that Bastian had announced right when he took on the role. He had written in a X post, “The mandate of the EF is to make sure that real permissionless infra, cypherphunk, is what gets built.Ethereum should outlast us…to make it last 1000 years or more.”

Thus, the base for current transition had already been laid by Bastian as soon as he took over as EFs co-ED.

Board of Ethereum Foundation

The decisions that happen at and for Ethereum are made by cumulative majority. Besides Bastian Bues, the leadership of the Ethereum Foundation currently includes Vitalik Buterin, mostly involved in technical vision and Aya Miyaguchi, the foundations president.

The board also includes Swiss legal counsel Patrick Storchenegger and Hsiao-Wei Wang, who also serves as Co-Executive Director. Josh Stark remains a key figure, overseeing areas such as project execution, communications, and marketing.
