Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has outlined a vision for a leaner Ethereum Foundation, describing it as a "smaller ship" following a wave of high-profile departures. Buterin emphasized that the foundation will shift its focus toward critical long-term technical goals—such as AI-assisted formal verification and consensus security—rather than broad initiatives.
