I’m thrilled to introduce Protocol: a new structure for @ethereumfndn's R&D teams. Our focus: scale L1, scale blobs, and improve UX, without compromising on Ethereum's core values. The world is ready for the world computer. It's on us to deliver it.

Thanks @tim for the update. Genuine question: why there isn’t any focus on apps? On actual utility of the Ethereum protocol?

They already have them on L2s: cheap, almost instant txs. Ok improving the stack, but it’s time to start focusing on the real use cases to get adoption. And there’s plenty to explore (DeFi, DePIN, AI, …) - which is where other ecosystems are ahead of in terms of experimentation and adoption, and ultimately the thing that will matter the most.

Deploying ETH is the bare minimum at this point. Look at the level of support and engagement the foundation of other chains (Solana, Monad, ecc) do for their apps. Apps should always be at the center of any chain’s plan. Appreciate this is an update for the protocol team only, but more focus on apps can only benefits the whole ethereum eco

I see eg solana foundation doing app specific shoutouts Is that the sort of thing you want to see more of? (Let's skip monad bc they aren't live) Do sui/aptos foundation do enough of this? I agree getting apps to do well is not easy so they can use the support But im less convinced that eg the foundation is the right champion over eg smth like etherealize
