It should confidently represent aspects of Ethereum that are effective in expressing and intentionally creating and nurturing open spaces for other organizations to express other aspects of Ethereum. is. Some of the other aspects definitely make more sense in a commercial format. ”
Additionally, Buterin answered the call Changes at EF include executive director Ayamiyaguchi's refusal to resign over the foundation's recent sale of ETH to cover expenses generated from fostering the ecosystem.
Critics argued that options such as staking and reducing the amount of transactions would have been a more effective decision.
Buterin also criticized social media pressure campaigns by figures such as Coinmamba, Tetranode, and Evan Van Ness, highlighting their harm to Ethereum's culture and talent preservation.

José Maria Macedo, co-founder of Delphi Labs; spoke That he doesn't see a “more effective leader” of another Ethereum-centric foundation than Romashuk. he added:
“If Vitalik is a prophet, Konstantin is a prince. A strategic thinker/visionary with a deep understanding of codes and a relentless execution. He also consistently attracts world-class talent around him.”
Meanwhile, Stani Kulechov, founder of Avara Labs, prompted “We have a scope with a better, faster, stronger EF path.” He said he wants to be less careful with “internal politics and neutrality” and direct his efforts to advance the technology as quickly as possible. said it should.
