2025-04-20 23:57:07
On April 21, according to The Block, Vitalik Buterin, co-founder of Ethereum, proposed on the Ethereum Magicians forum on April 20 to replace the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) with the open-source Instruction Set Architecture architecture RISC-V to improve the efficiency of the execution layer. Buterin pointed out that this move can improve the efficiency of zero-knowledge proofs by up to 100 times, while maintaining two-way compatibility with existing EVM contracts. The proposal aims to address Ethereum's long-term scaling bottlenecks in terms of data availability, block production competitiveness, and ZK-EVM proofs.
