Ethereum’s Strategic Pivot: The Plan to Restore Dominance

This podcast episode of Bankless features Ethereum Foundation researchers Dankrad Feist and Onsgard Dietrichson discussing how Ethereum should reorient its strategy. Dietrichson argues that the lack of growth in the Ethereum layer 1 is perhaps the majority of Ethereum's problems, and that the falling ETH price is a downstream consequence. Feist says the core issue is that Ethereum never took the downstream consequences of decentralization seriously, and that the Foundation saw its role as public goods funding rather than leadership. The hosts also note that activity on Ethereum is down and that other ecosystems are capturing marginal growth.
