Ethereum Co-Founder Vitalik Buterin Announces a New Era in the Mature Crypto Landscape at Token 2049.
Vitalik Buterin drew attention to the rapid developments in the Ethereum ecosystem during his speech at the Token 2049 conference. He attributed the decline in transaction fees and the acceleration of developments to Ethereum’s Layer-2 (L2) solutions. Emphasizing that transaction fees used to be as high as $800 and have now been reduced to almost zero, Buterin stated that the existing L2 networks contributed to this success. This milestone is of great importance for Ethereum’s wider and more practical use in daily life.
Buterin explained in detail how Layer-2 (L2) solutions are revolutionizing the Ethereum ecosystem. These secondary structures work on top of Ethereum’s primary blockchain, significantly increasing scalability and reducing transaction fees. He stated that these developments not only reduce costs but also increase transaction security. Emphasizing the transition from the high transaction fees of the past to the current era of low-cost and secure transactions, Buterin stated that L2 solutions are at a critical point in the evolution of the technology.
Buterin also explained how the Merge update significantly shortens transaction confirmation times. This update, which plays a central role in Ethereum’s roadmap, symbolizes the transition from the energy-intensive Proof of Work (PoW) model to the more efficient Proof of Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism. This accelerated transaction confirmations made Ethereum more practical for everyday transactions and facilitated its adoption among different user groups.
In his speech, Buterin drew parallels between the growth of the cryptocurrency sector and the historical evolution of the internet. He noted that well-established cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum have been around for over a decade.
