Odaily Planet Daily reports that the Ethereum Foundation has announced that Pascal Caversaccio, known as pcaversaccio (or "pc"), has joined the Foundation’s board, increasing the number of board members to four.
Caversaccio is a co-founder of the Ethereum security organization SEAL 911 and a well-known security expert and privacy advocate in the crypto ecosystem. He is recognized for his technical security expertise and his commentary on cypherpunk culture, privacy, and decentralization, and has authored the "Ethereum Cypherpunk Manifesto."
Ethereum Foundation Chair Aya Miyaguchi said that Caversaccio brings not only expertise in security and privacy, but also practical experience that aligns closely with Ethereum’s core values. She expressed anticipation for the new perspectives he will bring to the Foundation and for helping it deepen its thinking on security and privacy issues.
Currently, the Ethereum Foundation board of directors includes Aya Miyaguchi, Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin, Swiss legal representative Patrick Storchenegger, and the newly added Caversaccio. The foundation states that the board functions as a “safety committee,” responsible for safeguarding the foundation’s core mission and ensuring its compliance as a Swiss foundation.
This appointment is also part of recent adjustments in Ethereum ecosystem governance. As the foundation has faced discussions in recent years regarding organizational changes, governance transparency, and roadmap alignment, the inclusion of individuals with a focus on security and privacy on the board may further reinforce Ethereum’s cypherpunk identity and long-term value narrative.
