ME News reports that on May 25 (UTC+8), Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin published a post outlining his personal views on the future development of the Ethereum Foundation. The Foundation is currently undergoing a transformation to become a smaller, more focused organization prioritizing long-term sustainability over broad coverage. He emphasized that the Foundation currently holds only about 0.16% of ETH and has no ongoing revenue streams from staking or transaction fees, and thus must concentrate on tasks critical to Ethereum’s core values of censorship resistance, openness, privacy, and security (CROPS)—tasks that other entities are ill-equipped to undertake. The Ethereum Foundation should not serve as the “center” of Ethereum, but rather as a “node” with a clear mission. Ethereum should strive for deep impact along the CROPS dimensions, rather than solely pursuing maximum TPS. Over the coming months, the Foundation will gradually stabilize into its new form, while encouraging other organizations to take on roles the Foundation cannot or should not fulfill—such as more actively supporting ETH’s value as an asset.

Summary
Vitalik Buterin outlined the Ethereum Foundation’s shift toward long-term investing, reducing its size to focus on core CROPS values. The foundation holds just 0.16% of ETH, with no staking or fee income, and must avoid becoming Ethereum’s central authority. On-chain trading signals and deep impact in privacy and security will guide its strategy. The new structure will stabilize in the coming months, with other groups filling the gaps.
