Uniswap CEO Hayden Adams has revealed a proposal to improve Ethereum (EIP) to change the ecosystem.

Adams' statements come amid ongoing discussions about the Ethereum (ETH) ecosystem following concerns about its leadership and scalability.

Hayden Adams shares a proposal for Ethereum unity

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Adams proposed a one-time inflationary event. Here, newly created ETH will be used to purchase leading decentralized finance (DeFi) projects and Layer 2 (L2) solutions.

"To be honest, I've been thinking about an EIP to buy up top DeFi projects and L2s with a one-time ETH inflation for years. DAOs could pre-commit on-chain so everything happens at once. Make DeFi + L2 free, and just ETH left... This would be very interesting and valuable for Ethereum,"

Adams explained.

Adams' proposal has sparked a broader discussion about unifying the Ethereum ecosystem, particularly the role of L2 solutions. C-node, an Ethereum community member, proposed forming a coalition of competitors to draft an EIP that would create ETH for collective buyouts.

Optimist Prime, an Ethereum expansion advocate, amplified the discussion, highlighting Optimism's contributions to Ethereum. Among these, he cited their commitment to open-source and funding for public Layer-1 (L1) products.

"The Optimism team has consistently done things to help everyone, even competitors. And what is Superchain if not Ethereum unification,"

he wrote.

All these statements stem from a call by Ethereum supporter Jill Gunter for greater neutrality and coordination among leading L2 teams. Gunter emphasized collaboration over competition.

"The tide is turning. Top L2 teams are starting to seriously exhibit coordination and neutrality across Ethereum. Less Superchain, more Ethereum,"

Gunter proposed.

This aligns with Vitalik Buterin's thinking on expanding Ethereum's L1 and L2 infrastructure. The Ethereum co-founder emphasized the importance of reducing reliance on L2 for basic transactions while maintaining their role in network scaling.

Meanwhile, this discussion adds to the list of calls for the Ethereum ecosystem, which continues to face criticism for its fragmented approach to scaling, governance, and interoperability. These stem from significant leadership changes within Ethereum. The Ethereum Foundation (EF) recently announced a leadership restructuring, raising questions about the project's direction and governance.

Additionally, Eric Conner, a prominent figure in the Ethereum community, has announced his departure. As BeInCrypto reported, he cited disappointment with Ethereum's internal motivations and a lack of focus on end-user benefits.

Amidst the uncertainty, Vitalik Buterin has proposed creating an Ethereum Staking Fund to address concerns about concentration in staking activities. Justin Sun, the founder of Tron, recently shared his plan to revive Ethereum, emphasizing the need for better user experience and wider adoption of Ethereum-based solutions.

Data from BeInCrypto shows that ETH is currently trading at $3,199, up nearly 5% since Tuesday's market open. Analysts have also observed increased interest from "whales," which could benefit Ethereum's price.
