Ethereum's roadmap, as outlined by Vitalik Buterin at the Japan Developer Conference and EDCON 2025, emphasizes scaling, security, and decentralization. Key initiatives include gas limit increases, ZK-EVM enhancements, and block-level optimizations. Notably, the roadmap does not address the O(N^[1/3]) memory access concept, focusing instead on Layer-2 scalability and core network performance. Buterin reiterated the priority of ensuring Layer-1's credibility and security, aligning with past upgrades like The Merge and Shanghai, which also prioritized scaling over memory complexity.
