Vitalik proposed to replace EVM with RISC-V, aiming to address the EVM's inefficiency in ZK proving.

What is RISC-V?
An open-source, lightweight computer instruction system (like a blueprint for how processors run code).

Why is RISC-V special?
It’s fast, efficient, and easy to work with, especially for advanced tech like ZK proofs.

Key Difference with EVM
- EVM is designed just for Ethereum.
- RISC-V is a general-purpose system used in the broader tech world.

Why switch to RISC-V?
Vitalik suggests RISC-V could make Ethereum up to 100x faster and more scalable with ZK tech.

What do you think?

New @VitalikButerin blog post on replacing the EVM with RISC-V in the long-term.

I am a huge fan of this direction for Ethereum's execution layer.

Today, RISC-V zkVMs like SP1 are the clear endgame solution for "ZK-ifying" Ethereum and quickly becoming the de-facto solution for https://t.co/yFBojIheqC
