Decentralization Strategy: Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin stated that the Ethereum Foundation will reduce its central role in the ecosystem, focusing more on decentralization, privacy, and censorship resistance, thereby enhancing Ethereum's competitiveness in the blockchain space.
Technical Roadmap: Buterin reiterated Ethereum's long-term technical direction, emphasizing the importance of avoiding competition solely based on speed, instead prioritizing security and open infrastructure, which will help elevate Ethereum's technical differentiation and market positioning.
Market Sentiment Analysis: Crypto trader Michaël van de Poppe noted that the current weak sentiment around Ethereum could create long-term accumulation opportunities; despite Ethereum's recent underperformance, investors should focus on its potential value recovery.
Foundation Influence Changes: The Ethereum Foundation currently holds approximately 0.16% of the total ETH supply, with Buterin highlighting that this figure is significantly lower than other blockchain foundations, indicating a rapid acceleration in Ethereum's decentralization process.

About ETH

Ethereum is a decentralized open-source blockchain system that features its own cryptocurrency, Ether. ETH works as a platform for numerous other cryptocurrencies, as well as for the execution of decentralized smart contracts.Ethereum was first described in a 2013 whitepaper by Vitalik Buterin. Buterin, along with other co-founders, secured funding for the project in an online public crowd sale in the summer of 2014. The project team managed to raise $18.3 million in Bitcoin, and Ethereum’s price in the Initial Coin Offering (ICO) was $0.311, with over 60 million Ether sold. Taking Ethereum’s price now, this puts the return on investment (ROI) at an annualized rate of over 270%, essentially almost quadrupling your investment every year since the summer of 2014.The Ethereum Foundation officially launched the blockchain on July 30, 2015, under the prototype codenamed “Frontier.” Since then, there has been several network updates — “Constantinople” on Feb. 28, 2019, “Istanbul” on Dec. 8, 2019, “Muir Glacier” on Jan. 2, 2020, “Berlin” on April 14, 2021, and most recently on Aug. 5, 2021, the “London” hard fork.Ethereum’s own purported goal is to become a global platform for decentralized applications, allowing users from all over the world to write and run software that is resistant to censorship, downtime and fraud.
