Vitalik Buterin: Ethereum's Mission is to Build a World Computer and Serve as Core Internet Infrastructure

Odaily News Vitalik Buterin posted on X, stating that Ethereum has increased the Gas limit and blob count in 2025, improved node software quality, and achieved zkEVM performance milestones. Ethereum is advancing towards becoming a new and more powerful blockchain through zkEVM and PeerDAS.

The challenge Ethereum faces is to achieve its established goal: building a world computer that serves as the core infrastructure for a freer and more open internet. Ethereum is developing decentralized applications that are immune to fraud, censorship, or third-party interference, and possess the stability to continue operating even after developers disappear. To achieve this goal, Ethereum needs to achieve large-scale usability and true decentralization at both the blockchain layer and the application layer.
