Vitalik: Ethereum Should Be as Reliable as the World's Pulse, Increasing Bandwidth Safer than Reducing Latency
Summary: In a recent post, Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin discussed Ethereum scalability, stating that increasing bandwidth is safer than reducing latency. He believes that using PeerDAS and ZKPs can achieve thousands of times scalability while maintaining decentralization. However, latency is limited by factors such as the speed of light, node location, censorship resistance, and economic feasibility. ...
In a recent post, Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin discussed Ethereum scalability, stating that increasing bandwidth is safer than reducing latency. He believes that using PeerDAS and ZKPs can achieve thousands of times scalability while maintaining decentralization. However, latency is limited by factors such as the speed of light, node location, censorship resistance, and economic feasibility. Vitalik emphasized that Ethereum should be as reliable as the world's pulse, not a high-speed game server. Applications requiring faster speeds should use off-chain components, which is one reason why layer-two networks will continue to play a role even in highly scalable Ethereum.
