At Devconnect Argentina, Ethereum Foundation's Co-Executive Director Hsiao-Wei Wang delivered a speech titled "Ethereum is a Ladder," highlighting the core capabilities of Ethereum's upcoming "Fusaka" phase: reliability, flexibility, and guardian responsibility. Wang emphasized Ethereum's track record of 100% continuous block production during major upgrades, a standard that Fusaka aims to maintain. She described the Foundation's role as "caring but not controlling," fostering an environment where direction emerges naturally. Using the metaphor of "step compounding," she illustrated the ecosystem's evolution, where research, clients, applications, and community each become a new step for successors. Wang stressed the non-negotiable nature of decentralization, credible neutrality, and resilience under pressure, warning that compromising these could undermine the entire structure.
