Ethereum Foundation infighting spreads as Vitalik Buterin moves to cut influence
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin (비탈릭 부테린) has responded to sharp criticism over the Ethereum Foundation\'s role and operations. He rejected demands that the foundation defend token prices or step up marketing, saying priorities are censorship resistance, open source code, long-term research, cybersecurity and decentralisation. He said the foundation holds about 0.16 percent of ETH supply and will reduce ETH sales. The foundation is also overhauling governance to dilute individual influence.

CoinDesk reported that the latest exits have prompted broader questions about whether the foundation understands the ecosystem it was created to steward. Former researcher Dankrad Feist said the foundation lacks economic leverage, while journalist Laura Shin said decisions since the March 2024 Dencun upgrade ignored token economics.

Ethereum transaction volume jumps, raising questions about rally momentum
Ethereum processed a record 240 million transactions on its base layer in the first quarter of 2026, the highest quarterly total on record. It was the first time quarterly transactions topped 200 million. The rebound coincided with wider use of layer-2 networks and stablecoins, with Ethereum-based stablecoin supply reaching $18 billion. Ethereum was around $2,260, up about 10 percent over the past month, though lower fee revenue limits the direct link to token value.
