What are the key points for Ethereum next year? Nethermind founder Tomasz Stanczak recently shared his views. He mentioned that researcher Dankrad Feist believes that L1 scalability is still far from complete, and Ethereum is focusing more on faster transaction speeds and institutional-grade privacy protection.



This reveals an interesting signal: Ethereum's development focus is shifting. L1 scalability has always been a hot topic in the Ethereum ecosystem, with various technical approaches being explored, from Rollups to sharding solutions. But now it seems that core developers believe there is still more work to be done. At the same time, they also realize that institutional users have an increasing demand for privacy features. By 2026, Ethereum may make more concrete progress in these two areas.

Hmm... institutional-level privacy? It feels more like a backdoor for big players. Ordinary people still have to wait in line.

So L1 still needs to be refined, but now they're secretly working on privacy and speed. Are they trying to please the big players?

I don't really believe that privacy features alone can attract institutions... Frankly, the real solution still has to be addressing the efficiency issues.

Wait, is L1 scaling "still far from complete"? That sounds like an excuse for rollup's underperformance... But on-chain data does show that the gas fee pattern has been changing over the past two years. I do believe in the demand for privacy from institutions—after all, no one wants to be thoroughly scrutinized on the chain. If a privacy solution can truly be implemented by 2026, that would be the real highlight. It's still too early to say now.
