Ethereum

i’ve been thinking a lot this week about the map of social change roles and how we can use this framework to think about ethereum’s ecosystem. ethereum is a social experiment that needs all players involved. mapping thread, tag urself 🪡

1/ The Ethereum Foundation is thrilled to welcome Hsiao-Wei Wang and Tomasz Stanczak as co-Executive Directors. This new leadership structure marks an exciting new chapter in the Foundation's evolution as we continue to support a growing Ethereum ecosystem.

Very excited to finally announce this! @hww and @tkstanczak will bring fresh execution, and together, we will work to advance the values of Ethereum!

The EF Silviculture Society: a loose collection of individuals from outside the Foundation who provide informal counsel to the EF in tending to the (dark or otherwise) forests in the infinite garden of Ethereum, to make sure we sustain the core values of open source, privacy, security and censorship resistance.

The roots of the infinite garden are nourished by soils rich in these core values. Ethereum’s success depends on having talented and committed developers building with these values in mind, and EF’s ethos and work has always been centered around them.

The EF is donating $1.25M to the legal defense of Alexey Pertsev.

Privacy is normal, and writing code is not a crime.

You can contribute to Alexey's defense here:

Aya first shared the idea of transitioning from ED of @ethereumfndn to President a year ago.

She has accomplished much in her seven years as executive director of the EF. As I see it, the role of an ED is to create an environment where others can shine and do their best work, and so every success of the EF - the steady execution of Ethereum hard forks, client interop workshops, Devcon, Ethereum's culture and steadfast commitment to its mission and values, and more - is in part a result of Aya's stewardship.

@AyaMiyagotchi will continue supporting the EF in many of the same ways in her new role. Meanwhile, we have been working on the new EF leadership structure, and will share more news soon. Stay tuned!
