Vitalik: The development direction of Ethereum L1 is relatively clear, but the infrastructure of the entire ecosystem lacks consensus
According to a tweet by Emmanuel Awosika, he describes Ethereum in 2024 as a science lab: many people are experimenting, and there are good results from time to time, but overall it lacks direction. He questions the plan for the next 2-3 hard forks and their relationship with the final goal.
Vitalik Buterin responded that the challenges are more subtle. The development direction of Ethereum L1 is relatively clear, but the infrastructure of the entire ecosystem lacks consensus. Many key technologies such as "built-in bridges", "Rollup decentralized technology", "multi-verifiers" etc., are not L1 features, but challenges in high-level ecosystem construction and standardization. He pointed out that having only a roadmap is not enough; resources are also needed for execution. Although ERC-7683 and Waku represent good progress, more similar projects are needed along with clear resources and motivation to complete them.

The Senate takes control, the White House can no longer appoint "its own people", has the Federal Reserve's independence alarm been lifted?
After the Senate changed hands, the White House's room to install its own people at the Federal Reserve has been significantly narrowed. JPMorgan economist Feroli pointed out that the only expiring Federal Reserve Board position in the next two years is Powell's chairmanship (January 2028). If the White House wants to fill it, it must nominate a candidate acceptable to the Democratic-controlled Senate; otherwise, the seat will remain vacant. Meanwhile, the political value of removing Board member Cook has therefore diminished, and current Chair Waller's path to reappointment is also facing new congressional public relations pressure.
