The Ethereum Foundation has unveiled a comprehensive treasury policy, marking the next 18 months as pivotal for the Ethereum ecosystem. This strategic shift aims to bolster financial stability and optimize resource allocation amid the rapidly evolving blockchain landscape.
Under the new policy, the Foundation will cap annual operational expenses at 15% of its treasury assets, ensuring a 2.5-year financial runway. This approach reflects a commitment to prudent financial management and long-term sustainability.
The policy also emphasizes transparency, with plans to regularly reassess operational costs and align them with Ether reserves and sales. By doing so, the Foundation aims to support Ethereum’s growing DeFi ecosystem and broader adoption.
Hsiao-Wei Wang, co-executive director of the Ethereum Foundation, highlighted the importance of this period, stating that 2025-26 are likely to be pivotal years for Ethereum. The Foundation’s proactive measures are designed to navigate the challenges and opportunities ahead.
As Ethereum continues to evolve, the Foundation’s strategic pivot sets the stage for sustained growth and innovation in the decentralized finance space.
