Vitalik Buterin states that he is developing an Ethereum version that embodies the “cypherpunk” principles as an add-on layer to the current system. The goal of this approach is to enhance censorship resistance, optimize for zero-knowledge (ZK) technology, and streamline the consensus mechanism.
According to Buterin, within the next five years — possibly sooner with the support of AI — Ethereum could transition to a new system language to improve performance and security. Additionally, he mentioned plans to upgrade the state tree structure, consensus mechanism, ZK-EVM verification process, and virtual machine (VM).
This direction demonstrates ongoing efforts to further decentralize Ethereum, optimize infrastructure, and strengthen the long-term technical foundation of the network.
