The Ethereum Foundation (EF) is undergoing a significant leadership transformation aimed at enhancing efficiency and aligning more closely with community needs, as announced by co-founder Vitalik Buterin.

This restructuring process has been in progress for nearly a year, focusing on addressing gaps in technical expertise and streamlining operations within the Foundation.

Co-founder Joseph Lubin has proposed a dual-leadership model for the EF, suggesting Ethereum developer Danny Ryan and Ethereum France President Jérôme de Tychey as potential leaders to balance technical and business strategies.

Lubin believes that this partnership would inject energy and creativity into the EF, positioning it as a trusted blockchain ecosystem.

Buterin has emphasized the Foundation's commitment to neutrality, stating it will refrain from political lobbying and will not favor specific interests, instead focusing on supporting ecosystem growth and innovation.

In response to community scrutiny over past operational passivity and spending concerns, the Foundation plans to implement decentralized technologies for internal processes, including payments and treasury management.

The EF intends to improve collaboration with developers, wallets, Layer-2 networks, and users while promoting decentralization, privacy, and open-source principles.

Lubin has drawn parallels between Ethereum and Switzerland, advocating for a neutral stance while promoting Ethereum's core values and technological advancements.

He also highlighted the importance of maintaining international relationships and actively promoting Ethereum's capabilities in the blockchain space.
