#Ethereum Foundation Adjusts Leadership#

The Ethereum Foundation (EF) is undergoing a leadership adjustment that has been in progress for nearly a year. Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin posted an update about the adjustment on social media, stating that the EF's goals include enhancing leadership's technical capabilities, improving two-way communication with ecosystem stakeholders (including users, application developers, wallets, and L2s), strengthening execution and speed, attracting new talent, actively supporting application developers, and ensuring that core values such as privacy, open-source, and censorship resistance are implemented at the application level. Vitalik also emphasized that the EF will not pursue ideological shifts, will not excessively lobby regulators or politicians, and will never transform itself into an arena for interest groups.The background of this adjustment is the widespread criticism the EF has faced from the community, which believes that its leadership lacks technical expertise, communicates insufficiently with ecosystem participants, and has low execution capabilities. The community has called for the EF to reform in order to better support Ethereum's development.Vitalik's statement indicates that the EF is taking the community's criticisms seriously and is committed to reform. This adjustment is expected to have a significant impact on the future development of Ethereum.
