Vitalik Buterin, a co-founder of Ethereum (ETH), has reiterated the importance of individual sovereignty. The popular web3 developer argued that the Ethereum network was not created to make finance efficient or apps convenient but instead to set people free.
In a bid to lead the Ethereum ecosystem towards a competitive future, Buterin has reiterated the importance of individual sovereignty. Buterin noted in an X post that the Ethereum ecosystem must focus on achieving resilience instead of convenience and efficiency.
He revisited the Trustless Manifesto to urge Ethereum developers to ensure individual privacy. Furthermore, Buterin led the Ethereum community in celebrating the breakthrough of achieving the blockchain trilemma through major network upgrades such as Fusaka in 2025 and the Merge.
“Resilience is the game where if you become politically unpopular and get deplatformed, or if the developers of your application go bankrupt or disappear, or if Cloudflare goes down, or if an internet cyberwar breaks out, your 2000ms latency continues to be 2000ms,” Buterin stated.
Following the notable developments of the Ethereum network, more institutional investors are building on ETH. The clearer crypto regulatory framework in the United States, through the Genius Act and soon the Clarity Act, has helped the Ethereum ecosystem attract more institutions seeking to build stablecoins and other web3 projects.
According to onchain data analysis from Token Terminal, Ethereum’s stablecoin transfer volume surpassed $4 trillion during the fourth quarter of 2025. Additionally, Ethereum’s real-world assets have edged higher in the past few months, according to Token Terminal.
Following an impressive ETH price bullish rebound since the beginning of 2026, crypto analyst @Cryptorover on X believes that a bullish reversal towards $5,556 is imminent.
