#Strategy加仓BTC Vitalik recently shared a perspective — 2026 will be a turning point for Ethereum. There are many things to do this year: using ZK-EVM and BAL technology to enable ordinary people to run nodes, launching Helios to verify the authenticity of RPC data, protecting private data from leaks with ORAM and PIR, and adding social recovery wallets and time locks to insure funds. The underlying logic is clear — over the past decade, Ethereum has made many compromises to expand: high node operation costs, applications still relying on centralized infrastructure, and user privacy being targeted by various data analysis companies. Now, these issues need to be addressed one by one. Although it won't happen overnight, the ecosystem will ultimately become more resilient. $ETH $ZK

rpc data verification feels like patch work when the real issue is wallet clustering patterns... 2026 timeline always screams desperation to me tbh

Can 2026 really handle so many things? I think Vitalik wants to turn Ethereum into something else, so he might as well just rebuild it from scratch.

When will 2026 be? It's already 2024, and how many waves will we have to go through in between... But thinking about it, I'm still a bit hopeful. If ordinary people can really run nodes, that would be awesome. It's just a matter of whether V will be serious this time or just making empty promises again.

What to do if 2026 really arrives? Feels like this stack of technologies is going to be delayed again, haha.

2026 is a critical year, but to be honest, can the node costs really come down? It feels like every time it's just hype.
