Buterin: Hegota may be Ethereum's last 'regular' upgrade

  • —Hegota is planned for 2026 and may be Ethereum's final 'regular' upgrade
  • —Post-Hegota focus will shift to recursive STARKs, formal verification and quantum safety
  • —By 2030 block validation will move to SNARK verification and PeerDAS instead of full data downloads
  • —Buterin expects 4–8 second slots and 8–32 second finality
Why it matters: The shift in Ethereum's roadmap sets the direction for L2s, staking and infrastructure for years to come.
