Ethereum Foundation Shifts Focus Towards User Experience & Scalability Following Leadership Changes

The Ethereum Foundation is prioritizing user experience and scalability improvements in light of recent leadership changes. Cointelegraph reports that the organization’s focus has shifted away from day-to-day operational tasks to address these crucial areas, allowing Vitalik Buterin, co-founder of Ethereum, more time for research and development. This shift comes after his resignation as head of daily operations on March 1st, which was followed by Hsiao-Wei Wang and Tomasz Stańczak taking on the roles of co-directors on March 17th. These changes will free Buterin to focus on long-term projects aimed at enhancing Ethereum’s privacy and performance. Buterin has initiated several initiatives, including a proposed roadmap for enhanced privacy in transactions, as well as modifications to contract language within the Ethereum Virtual Machine to increase its efficiency and speed.
