Buterin says Ethereum Foundation will shrink, sell less ETH, and focus on 'CROPS'
Summary
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has outlined a shift for the Ethereum Foundation, aiming to prioritize long-term stability over broad growth. The Foundation plans to reduce its ETH sales and narrow its operational scope to the 'CROPS' framework: censorship resistance, capture resistance, openness, privacy, and security. Buterin emphasized that the Foundation should not be viewed as the center of the Ethereum ecosystem but rather as one of many nodes. Additionally, he noted that his personal influence within the organization is intended to decrease as the board expands, reinforcing the goal of decentralization and avoiding the risks associated with prioritizing raw throughput over foundational integrity.
