Ethereum’s biggest risk may no longer be competition, regulation, or scaling. According to Vitalik Buterin, the real threat is something more subtle: complexity.
In a recent warning, Buterin argued that Ethereum’s long-term goals, trustlessness, self-sovereignty, and resilience, are being quietly undermined as the protocol grows larger, more technical, and harder to understand. His message was blunt. A blockchain does not become stronger just because it adds features. In many cases, it becomes weaker.
