On July 21, God V attended the Ethereum Community Conference (ETHCC) in Paris and spoke about the progress of the ethereum merger and the future roadmap of Ethereum.Blockchain development tools provider Biconomy CTO Sachin TomarandEncryption researcher Miles DeutscherA summary of the speech was posted on the social networking site. BlockBeats has translated the following.
According to V God, Ethereum can achieve 100,000 TPS after completing five key stages. The five stages are:
The Merge;
The firm;
The Verge.
The Purge.
The Splurge.

The merger refers to the merger of the Ethereum executive layer (the current main network) with the beacon chain (the new POS layer).
For Ethereum, this means:
1. Becoming a deflationary asset (reduced issuance);
2. Reduced energy consumption by 99%.
The upgrade is tentatively scheduled for September 19, 2022.
Refers to the introduction of sharding on Ethereum.
Sharding is the breaking up of the entire blockchain network into smaller partitions. This will significantly improve the scalability of the network.

Introduction of the Verkle tree, which is "a powerful upgrade to Merkle proofs, with smaller space requirements for proofs".
This will optimize storage on Ethereum and help reduce node size. Ultimately, this will help ETH improve scalability.

Reduce the hard disk space required by the verifier. This eliminates historical data and bad debts.
This means simplified storage and thus less network congestion.

A series of miscellaneous items, including "minor" upgrades, ensure that the network runs smoothly after the first four phases.
In addition to the five phases of the new roadmap, V-God also outlined the current issues and future development of Ethereum. Sachin Tomar concludes as follows:
We're in a phase where we're increasing ethereum's capabilities through rapid protocol change. But eventually we'll stop making quick changes to protocols and use systems like L2 to add more features to the Ethereum ecosystem.
L1 for security and reliability, L2 for fast iterative operations.
「功能逃逸速度」(Functionality escape velocity)理论:一旦 L1 足够强大,剩下的交给 L2 就可以了。 开发人员需要休息,新功能需要时间来降低风险。
添加对多个虚拟机的支持将会增加共识复杂性;
解决基础层 SNARKS 而不是等待更好的路径设计。
Made Ethereum so complex that only developers could understand its design.
Long-term rewards require short-term pain.
For IP-4444: The client must stop providing history headers, bodies and receipts on the P2P layer for more than a year.
Switch to the Verkle tree. Could mean that Ethereum has no backward compatibility.
The current development focus should be on lightweight clients that are easy to use, so that anyone can run them.
Make it easy for everyone to pledge in Ethereum by having smaller, decentralized pools.
Run full nodes on lighter hardware.
Make Ethereum quantum-resistant.
If zkEVM works well, TXN Spaces can be created in the base layer to reduce Rollup costs.
In search of better cryptography.
Finally, keep an open mind!
