📰 Vitalik put it very directly this time: modern Ethereum continues to be called a “blockchain,” largely just because of historical naming conventions. It’s evolving from a traditional ledger into a “world computer” powered by cryptography.
🔥 Change has already happened. In 2022, Ethereum transitioned from PoW to PoS. In the future, it also plans to reshape the old model—where a single participant proposes blocks, all nodes download them, and everyone re-executes them—through PeerDAS sampling, SNARK verification, and FOCIL multi-party block construction.
💡 For developers, the focus has also shifted. Pushing a lot of computation into a single serialized transaction that’s hard to break apart may cost more. Data that can be processed in parallel, handled earlier, and aggregated should be processed before it enters the final block, so that only the necessary state changes and execution order are put on-chain.
👀 Privacy is equally critical. Public-key anonymity can’t stop modern data analytics. ZK-SNARKs, FOCIL, and EIP-8288 target privacy issues in the transaction, broadcasting, and querying processes. To be honest, this is much more concrete than just calling for scaling.
🤔 If in the future nodes only need to sample a small amount of data and use proofs to confirm computation results, what do you care about more: real transaction fees dropping, or the ability for ordinary devices to participate in verification?
