Ethereum Co-Founder Vitalik Buterin Praises PeerDAS Progress and Fusaka Upgrade Delivering Sharding and Data Availability Sampling

In a public post, Vitalik Buterin notes that the Ethereum Foundation once prioritized cryptoeconomics, BFT consensus, and the block layer, often overlooking the network layer. The shift is evident as PeerDAS demonstrates improved capabilities and resilience.

He credited Foundation members such as @raulvk for heroic contributions ensuring PeerDAS‘s smooth operation and for outlining a roadmap to faster propagation, stronger fault tolerance, and enhanced network privacy.

Vitalik Buterin then expressed optimism for future developments and the potential they hold for Ethereum’s network architecture and overall reliability.

In a prior note celebrating the Fusaka upgrade, he stated that PeerDAS in Fusaka has achieved sharding and data availability sampling, aligning with Ethereum’s long-standing aspirations.
