On May 25, Vitalik Buterin took to X to share his personal recommendations for the Ethereum Foundation (EF): Moving forward, the EF will transition to a smaller, longer-term, more clearly defined organization—no longer acting as the central hub of the Ethereum ecosystem, but rather a node with specific, targeted responsibilities. Buterin also stressed that Ethereum shouldn’t just focus on chasing maximum transactions per second (TPS) and ultra-low latency. Instead, he said the network should build distinct competitive edges in areas like formal verification, stronger consensus security, and reduced reliance on intermediaries (CROPS)—and that these goals don’t conflict with scalability, layer-2 (L2) solutions, or shorter slot times. He added a key note about the EF’s resource strategy: The foundation is prioritizing long-term sustainability over stretching its resources too thin, which means it will sell less ETH. He also called ETH Ethereum’s most financially valuable product.

On May 25, Polkadot tweeted that its OpenGov system is currently voting on a major overhaul of the network’s staking structure. Referendum 1890 would require Polkadot validators to lock a minimum of 10,000 DOT of their own funds as self-stake. This reform is a necessary prerequisite for the network’s next big staking upgrade, which will bring two key changes: nominators will no longer be subject to slash risk, and the unbonding period will drop from roughly 28 days to 24–48 hours. If the referendum passes, validators will take on direct slash exposure via larger self-bonded stakes, while nominators keep earning staking rewards without putting their principal at risk of being slashed. These changes lower participation risk for nominators and make exiting the staking system much faster.
