Vitalik Buterin proposed a long-term proposal on the Ethereum Magicians forum to replace the virtual machine language of Ethereum smart contracts from the current EVM bytecode to the open-source architecture RISC-V, in order to significantly enhance the scalability of the execution layer. He stated that this may be the only feasible path to improve Ethereum's execution efficiency and reduce proof costs, and pointed out that the new and old contracts will remain mutually compatible. He also plans to develop an interpreter to convert EVM contracts to RISC-V. （TheBlock） https://www. (wublock123.com)/index.php? m=content&c=index&a=show&catid=6&id=41212
