As Ethereum marks its 10th anniversary, the platform finds itself at a critical point in its journey. In an exclusive interview with Cointelegraph, Tomasz Stanczak, co-executive director of the Ethereum Foundation, discusses the shifting landscape of blockchain technology — and what’s next for Ethereum.
During the interview, Stanczak addresses the growing competition from newer blockchains such as Solana, Aptos and others. While critics argue that Ethereum is lagging behind in terms of speed and user experience, Stanczak makes clear that the foundation has been focused on long-term priorities and careful progress, even amid outside noise.
He also shares his perspective on Ethereum’s evolving ecosystem, particularly the increasingly important relationship between layer-1 and layer-2 solutions. According to Stanczak, the focus is now on interoperability, tools and standards that can bring more cohesion to the Ethereum network — without compromising its core principles, such as decentralization and neutrality.
The conversation also touches on staking incentives and the ongoing debate about whether Ethereum can continue to attract validators as layer-2 solutions grow. Stanczak suggests that while institutional players often focus on returns, many community members prioritize Ethereum’s long-term values and security.
Community building is another hot topic. Stanczak reflects on Ethereum’s unique position in the crypto space and the foundation’s approach compared to rivals that have gained attention for aggressive outreach and rapid growth.
The interview also delves into Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin’s current influence and the subtle ways he continues to shape Ethereum’s direction.
Is Ethereum facing serious risks — or is it quietly preparing for its strongest chapter yet?
Watch the full interview to hear more about Ethereum’s roadmap, its position in the rapidly evolving crypto market and what lies ahead.
