Key facts
- Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin says quantum resistance, privacy, and AI-assisted security have become greater priorities for Ethereum since he published his 2023 roadmap
- In January, Buterin urged developers to adopt quantum-resistant cryptography before the threat becomes immediate, and the Ethereum Foundation formed a dedicated post-quantum team
- In a post on X on Monday, Buterin said he updated his 2023 roadmap to compare its original goals with Ethereum’s current “ Strawmap ”—a working outline of the network’s long-term technical priorities
- What's most striking, however, is that some completely new things are in the strawmap that are not in this diagram, because they were not in the 2023 roadmap at all,” Buterin wrote
Summary
Vitalik Buterin says Ethereum has elevated quantum security and privacy since its 2023 roadmap. The roadmap also includes native rollups and explores a future beyond the EVM. In a post on X on Monday, Buterin said he updated his 2023 roadmap to compare its original goals with Ethereum’s current “ Strawmap ”—a working outline of the network’s long-term technical priorities. “What's most striking, however, is that some completely new things are in the strawmap that are not in this diagram, because they were not in the 2023 roadmap at all,” Buterin wrote.
