Buterin Maps Ethereum's 2030 Cryptographic Overhaul

Vitalik Buterin on Sunday outlined a 2030 vision for Ethereum that combines the blockchain with cryptographic proofs and off-chain computers, letting users verify results without repeating every calculation. He said the shift accelerates after next year's Hegotá upgrade, which he expects to be Ethereum's last normal fork, and would improve privacy for payments, balances and wallet activity.
