The Ethereum Foundation is set to implement a conflict of interest policy following controversy over its ties with EigenLayer developers. Two Ethereum researchers, Justin Drake and Dankrad Feist, recently became paid advisers at EigenFoundation, with Drake revealing he would receive incentives worth millions of dollars. Both researchers insisted their roles at EigenFoundation were personal and would not influence their work at Ethereum. The move sparked mixed reactions, with some praising their transparency and others expressing skepticism. The Ethereum Foundation's executive director, Aya Miyaguchi, announced the new policy, promising more details soon.
