Why the conviction moved

  • Jul 7
    Strengthened +4

    New Ethereum research posts flesh out Vitalik Buterin's 'Lean' rebuild of consensus, data, and execution around simpler provable components, advancing the concrete post-Glamsterdam throughput roadmap rather than leaving it as intent.

  • Jul 6
    Strengthened +4

    A new Ethereum Research proposal would add Bitcoin-style unspent-transaction-output accounting to Ethereum to curb permanent state growth and improve stateless verification, extending the base-layer scaling and efficiency agenda.
