Ethereum Foundation Outlines βStrawmapβ Through 2029
The long-term plan proposes a series of upgrades aimed at faster transactions, higher capacity, and new privacy features.
The Ethereum Foundation has published a long-term plan called the 'strawmap.' It describes how Ethereum might change over the next few years. The main goals are faster transactions and higher capacity. This roadmap lists several potential changes across Ethereum's core layers. If implemented, this would be the biggest shift since The Merge in 2022. That upgrade moved the network from proof-of-work to proof-of-stake. I see this as a necessary step to handle more users and activity. Developers are focusing on gradual improvements in speed, security, and reliability. Vitalik Buterin called the roadmap a 'very important document' on X. We should analyze the technical tradeoffs of these proposed changes. How do you think this will affect the network's stability?
