I work for Ethereum at the Ethereum Foundation.

hey josh! ethereum's north star is credible neutrality - the idea that it should be a public good that treats all users equally and remains resistant to capture. it's about creating a system where rules are transparent, apply uniformly, and can't be changed arbitrarily by any single group.

this drives everything from technical decisions to governance philosophy. it's why we care so much about decentralization, permissionlessness, and maintaining strong social consensus around changes.

permissionless value creation & transfer.  otherwise it’s just another game in the Wall Street casino.
