[Vitalik Publishes Article 'The Cryptographic World Computer': Ethereum Will Evolve into a Fundamentally Different System by 2030] According to a report by Jinse Finance, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has published a new article titled *The Cryptographic World Computer*, stating that through years of technological evolution, Ethereum will gradually transform into a system fundamentally different in architecture from traditional blockchains. Vitalik believes that Ethereum already possesses capabilities such as general-purpose computation, PoS, zero-knowledge proofs, and L2 scaling, and in the future, it will further introduce adjustable computational architectures, multi-party block construction, highly optimized PoS, and zero-knowledge proofs deeply integrated into the base layer. Vitalik stated that by around 2030, Ethereum's core mechanisms in transaction validation, consensus, block construction, privacy, and computation will undergo significant changes. These include shifting from re-downloading and executing blocks to verifying data availability through SNARKs and PeerDAS, transitioning from PoW to highly optimized PoS, and replacing single-entity block construction with multi-party block construction. He believes that Ethereum's decentralized network in the future will not only serve security and censorship resistance purposes but may also enhance performance through parallel storage, parallel computation, and privacy protection. The Hegota upgrade might be Ethereum's last 'traditional' hard fork. Afterward, recursive STARKs, automated formal verification, optimized consensus mechanisms, and quantum-resistant technologies will become the main development directions, ultimately driving Ethereum to evolve from a simple ledger into a 'cryptographic world computer' that integrates blockchain, cryptographic privacy, verifiable computation, and decentralized off-chain components.
