Buterin unveils Ethereum roadmap to 2030: second-level finality and quantum resistance by 2029
- —Strawmap envisions seven hard forks roughly every six months, starting with Glamsterdam
- —2030 target: 4–8 second slots and 8–32 second finality versus about 13 minutes now
- —Post-quantum readiness across all three layers targeted for December 2029
- —zk-proof generation time cut from 16 minutes to 16 seconds
Why it matters: Faster finality and quantum resistance are critical for institutional settlement and tokenized assets on Ethereum.
