Ethereum's 'Surge' Aims for 100,000 Transactions Per Second

Vitalik Buterin outlines a roadmap combining Layer 1 and Layer 2 solutions to enhance Ethereum's scalability while maintaining decentralization and security.

• Ethereum's 'Surge' roadmap focuses on achieving over 100,000 transactions per second by integrating advanced Layer 2 scaling solutions.
• Key technologies in the plan include data availability sampling, L2 data compression, and generalized Plasma with SNARKs for improved efficiency.
• Buterin emphasizes the need for Ethereum to function as a unified ecosystem, enhancing interoperability between Layer 2 networks.
• The roadmap addresses the scalability trilemma, balancing decentralization, scalability, and security through cryptographic solutions like SNARKs.
• Ethereum's evolution continues with plans for future upgrades, including Pectra, to further enhance network scalability and performance.
