  • —Buterin spoke at the Network State Conference 2026 in Singapore on October 9
  • —AI now handles a substantial share of research and coding for the Lean Roadmap
  • —Formal verification in Lean 4 is the standout example of AI's contribution
  • —The next milestone is the Hegota upgrade around 2027, the last 'normal' fork
Why it matters: Faster development shortens the timeline for quantum resistance and formal verification, key factors for Ethereum's long-term security.
