Ok look, for long-term, ethereum’s going to have to switch their base layer in non-reverse-compatible ways,

A bit like Apple and others have done before

So what’s the problem?

(1) People haven’t yet figured out what’s the proper base layer proof system to use — something completely different than the “turing complete” base layers used today, so even if they were willing to totally abandon reverse-compatibility now, they wouldn’t know the real long-term foundation to switch to

(2) The one huge win that could be implemented — speeding things up — already has been done extremely well by Solana, who achieved this simply by “stealing” the well tested Berkeley Packet Filter (BPF) virtual machine from the Linux kernel and rewriting it in Rust. Basically making all the right moves if speed is your only goal. Hard to beat this in speed by much.

(3) Once the true “final” long-term path forward DOES come out, that won’t be clear that this is the true ultimate foundation until its already picking up big steam — at which point Ethereum may be too far behind to play catchup

= Ethereum likely has to do a major technical revamp, but even if they were willing to, they have no idea of what to switch to

Will ethereum’s next move, if they make one, just be to copycat Solana and swap in something much faster? Maybe. Likely won’t be much faster than Solana’s current foundation though.

Ethereum’s in a tough spot

(Could switch to a more appropriate proof-based foundation, but as 3 points out, they’d struggle to decide which one.)

Solana’s eBPF Virtual Machine

Evolved from the rather ancient BPF code made in 1992

Basically Solana said what’s the fastest pre-existing VM with decent properties that we can use for our platform, and they correctly identified the BPF VM as exactly that

Tbh, the right has a hard time understanding what the right themselves believe

Left has very easy intuitive lies — that everyone is born identical, that the world is purely zero sum, that every disparity is from theft or bias, that women are wonderful and men are the source of all evil

Right has shocking, hard-to-grasp truths — HBD, superiority of markets over central control, that value can be created instead of everything being zero sum, that the majority is not innately honest or even good

Left’s beliefs are much more normie friendly, much easier to comprehend

— Only problem is that they’re total lies
