Ethereum Roadmap Prioritizes Privacy, Post-Quantum Security, and Native Rollups

Vitalik updates Ethereum roadmap, elevating privacy and post-quantum security while introducing native rollups and new state types for specialized scalability.

Woofun AI reports that Vitalik Buterin has updated the Ethereum development roadmap, overlaying 2023 projects onto the current Strawmap to reflect shifted priorities. Key changes include elevated focus on strong privacy mechanisms like keyed Nonces and Wormholes, alongside post-quantum scalability solutions such as leanSPHINCS signatures and zkzk frames. The update also introduces native Rollups, enabled by mature SNARK technology, and proposes replacing EVM with simpler ISAs like RISC-V to reduce protocol complexity.

Additionally, new state types aim to handle specific high-load activities more efficiently than general-purpose expansion, supported by AI-accelerated formal verification.
