Vitalik Buterin Maps Ethereum's Evolution Into a 'Cryptographic World Computer'

  • —PeerDAS, live since the December 2025 Fusaka upgrade, lets nodes sample blob data instead of downloading every blob
  • —Hegotá, expected in 2027, could be the last upgrade broadly familiar to developers from earlier eras
  • —EIP-7805 (FOCIL) adds validator-backed inclusion lists to curb censorship by individual block builders
  • —The Ethereum Foundation targets about 2029 for core post-quantum infrastructure
Why it matters: The roadmap sets multi-year direction for L2s, staking and privacy, while Hegotá and post-quantum timelines shape developer planning.
