Author of 'Ethereum Cypherpunk Manifesto' Joins Ethereum Foundation Board

Odaily Odaily Planet Daily News, the Ethereum Foundation announced that Pascal Caversaccio, known as pcaversaccio (or “pc”), has joined its board of directors, expanding the board to four members.

Caversaccio is the co-founder of the Ethereum security organization SEAL 911 and a well-known security expert and privacy advocate in the crypto ecosystem. He is recognized for his technical security capabilities, as well as his commentary on cypherpunk culture, privacy, and decentralization, and is the author of the "Ethereum Cypherpunk Manifesto".

Ethereum Foundation Chair Aya Miyaguchi stated that Caversaccio brings not only security and privacy expertise but also practical experience that is highly aligned with Ethereum's core values. She expressed anticipation for the new perspective he will bring to the foundation and for driving deeper consideration of security and privacy issues.

Currently, the Ethereum Foundation board includes Aya Miyaguchi, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin, Swiss legal representative Patrick Storchenegger, and the newly added Caversaccio. The foundation stated that the board functions similarly to a "security committee," responsible for protecting the foundation's core mission and ensuring its compliance as a Swiss foundation.

This appointment is also part of the recent adjustments in the governance of the Ethereum ecosystem. As the foundation has faced discussions in recent years regarding organizational changes, governance transparency, and roadmap coordination, having a security and privacy-focused figure on the board may further solidify Ethereum's cypherpunk positioning and its long-term value narrative.
