The Ethereum Foundation has completely reorganized its internal development organization, rebranding its research team and implementing personnel restructuring. This change is considered a critical turning point in expanding the Ethereum ecosystem.
On June 2nd, the Foundation announced through its official blog that the existing 'Protocol Research & Development (PR&D)' team has been reorganized into 'Protocol'. The new team will focus on three key strategic goals: scaling the Ethereum base layer (L1), expanding blob space for rollups, and improving user experience (UX). The Foundation explained that "the process of implementing the Protocol is complex and faces challenges in quickly responding to ambiguous demands".
In particular, this reorganization is interpreted as an indicator of confidence that Ethereum is getting closer to mass adoption amid the radical development of zero-knowledge rollup (zkEVM) and Layer 2 technology. The Foundation emphasized that "this change goes beyond simple technical implementation, representing the optimal timing to apply Ethereum's philosophy and values on a global scale".
Key developers such as Tim Beiko, Alex Stokes, and Barnabé Monnot have been assigned to their respective specialized areas in the Protocol team. However, it was confirmed that some existing PR&D team members have left through this organizational restructuring. The Ethereum Foundation did not disclose the exact number of personnel.
The Ethereum Foundation stressed that the current Protocol organization has been reorganized into a "more solid and focused team that can move more agilely". With this new strategy and structure, they have laid the groundwork for Ethereum to take a further leap as a global blockchain infrastructure.
