Vitalik Buterin addresses the need for clearer coordination in the Ethereum ecosystem, emphasizing decentralization, collaboration, and open standards.





Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has made it clear that there is a need for clearer coordination within the Ethereum (ETH) ecosystem. According to his blog post, the key challenge is integrating decentralization and collaboration between various stakeholders, including client teams, researchers, layer 2 teams, application developers, and local community groups.

The challenge of alignment

Buterin emphasizes that the strength of the Ethereum ecosystem is its diversity. However, this diversity can also lead to fragmentation if not properly aligned. The goal is to have diverse projects contribute to a unified vision of Ethereum, rather than creating incompatible factions.

The concept of ‘Ethereum alignment’ includes value alignment (e.g. open source, minimal centralization, supporting public goods), technical alignment (e.g. adherence to ecosystem-wide standards), and economic alignment (e.g. using ETH as token when possible). do. ). Historically, this concept has been ill-defined and runs the risk of capturing social class, where alignment can simply mean having the right connections.

Make sorting easier to read

Buterin argues that the concept of alignment should be made more readable and broken down into specific properties expressed in measurable metrics. These indicators vary from person to person and evolve over time, but some of the basics are already established.

  • Open source: Core infrastructure components essential for security and avoiding proprietary lock-ins must be open source. Gold standards include the FSF free software definitions and the OSI open source definitions.
  • Open standards: Projects should strive for interoperability with Ethereum’s existing and developing standards. Compatibility with relevant ERCs can serve as a yardstick.
  • Decentralization and Security: Projects should minimize trust points and centralized infrastructure dependencies. Metrics include tampering tests and insider attack tests formalized as L2beat rollup steps.
  • Sum of positive numbers: Projects must benefit the Ethereum community and the wider world. This includes using ETH as a token, contributing to open source technology, and supporting public goods.

future steps

Buterin envisions more organizations like L2beat emerging to track how well projects meet these criteria and promote competition based on alignment rather than social connection. The Ethereum Foundation (EF) should fund these plans, but take a step back to maintain neutrality.

This approach allows organizations and individuals to support projects on their own terms, making it easier to incentivize coordination. Concerns about ‘who watches the watchers’ can be addressed through separation of privileges, using dashboard organizations such as L2beat and Block Explorer as examples.

By making the various aspects of alignment more readable and avoiding centralization, the concept can become more effective, fair, and inclusive, in line with the spirit of the Ethereum ecosystem.
