Ethereum Co-Founder Vitalik Buterin Announces Major Updates to 2023 Development Roadmap, Progress on Six Routes

As 2024 is approaching, Vitalik Buterin, co-founder of Ethereum, today announced an update to the Ethereum development roadmap for 2023, saying that Ethereum’s technical progress is increasingly improving, and he also made progress on the six major routes in the roadmap. Make an explanation.

(Background supplement: Buterin issued a post praising Arbitrum for being “truly decentralized” and proposed three major solutions to improve the efficiency of Ethereum’s PoS)

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin todayAnnounceA review of the updated Ethereum development roadmap in 2023 points out that as Ethereum becomes more technically sophisticated, there will be relatively few changes. It is actually very similar to the 2022 roadmap. The updated roadmap mainly includes six parts, namely The Merge, The Surge, The Scourge, The Verge, The Purge and The Splurge.

Progress on six major routes

Vitalik Buterin 還Tweetto further explain Ethereum’s progress on six major routes this year.

The Merge: Ethereum completed The Merge in September last year, switching from PoW to PoS consensus mechanism. The role of Single Slot Finality (SSF) in the post-merger PoS improvement is becoming increasingly consolidated. It is becoming more and more obvious that SSF It is the simplest way to solve the many current weaknesses of Ethereum’s PoS design.

SSF refers to determining the chain for each slot (12 seconds) rather than by epoch (12.8 minutes).

The Surge: This year, both EIP-4844 and rollup itself, Surge (rollup extension) has made significant progress. Cross-rollup standards and interoperability are also seen as areas requiring long-term improvement.

The Surge update on progress.

The Scourge: It has been redesigned to a certain extent, and the current focus is on combating the economic centralization of PoS in two key areas, namely solving the MEV and general pledge pool issues.

The Scourge updates progress.

The Verge: Significant progress is being made, Verkle trees are almost ready for inclusion.

The Verge updates progress.

The Purge: state expiry has been scaled down to reflect the general consensus that it is a fairly low priority and low urgency project, especially given the stateless client and proposer-builder separation (PBS ) / execute the ticket.

The Purge Update on progress.

The Splurge: Due to cryptographic weaknesses in existing structures, the Verulated Delay Function (VDF) has been scaled down to reflect the temporary reduced focus, and the updated roadmap adds new deep cryptography (e.g. obfuscation) and delayed cryptography memory pool to reflect the increasing research interest in these topics.

The Splurge update progress.
