Vitalik: If Decentralization Is Just a Slogan, ETH Will Face Risks

Odaily Planet Daily – Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin emphasized at the EthCC conference in France that the crypto industry needs to focus on concrete user protections through decentralization. During his speech at the Ethereum community meeting, he suggested that crypto projects should undergo practical testing, including exit tests and internal attack tests, to ensure user safety. At the same time, Vitalik Buterin warned of hidden vulnerabilities in Layer 2 networks and stressed the importance of privacy as a default feature. He proposed three core testing standards:
1. Exit test (whether user assets remain safe if the project team disappears);
2. Internal attack test (the system’s ability to withstand malicious actions from within);
3. Trusted computing base test (the amount of code that must be trusted to protect user assets). (CoinDesk)
