'We Are Building Future': Vitalik Buterin Debunks Ethereum FUD

Vitalik Buterin, the creator of 

Buterin said that Ethereum users should not feel like they have to defend the current system's shortcomings. Instead, he is confident that cross-L2 functionality will align with Ethereum's broader ecosystem goals in the future. 

Roadmap

Some of the key things on Buterin's to-do list are fixing chain-specific operations, enabling cross-chain payments and improving light client functionality. This will allow users to verify chains without relying on remote procedure calls (RPC).

The roadmap also points out that the ecosystem needs standardized protocols to make it easier for interaction to happen across chains. According to the roadmap, solutions for cross-chain swaps and gas payments, and new protocols like ERC-7683 and RIP-7755, are ways to make token transfers and transaction inclusion across L2s easier.

It also mentions the importance of "chain-specific addresses" and payment requests, which would allow users to conduct cross-L2 transactions by standardizing how addresses and payments are formatted and structured across chains.

Buterin's roadmap goes even further, with ideas like shared token bridges and synchronous composability. It is believed that these could make the L2 ecosystem more efficient and easier to use without compromising security or cost.
