According to Odaily, Vitalik Buterin has released a new article titled 'Possible Futures for the Ethereum Protocol, Part 2: The Surge,' detailing the future development goals for Ethereum. The key objectives outlined in the article include achieving over 100,000 transactions per second (TPS) on both Layer 1 (L1) and Layer 2 (L2), maintaining the decentralization and robustness of L1, ensuring that at least some L2 solutions fully inherit Ethereum's core properties such as trustlessness, openness, and censorship resistance, and maximizing interoperability between L2 solutions. Buterin emphasizes that Ethereum should function as a cohesive ecosystem rather than as 34 separate blockchains. The current task, according to the article, is to complete the rollup-centric roadmap and address related issues while preserving the robustness and decentralization of Ethereum's L1.
