Ethereum is about to enter a new era. In a message published on X, Vitalik Buterin announces a major technical upheaval: zk-EVMs could become, by 2027, the main block validation mechanism.

In November 2025, an outage at Cloudflare took offline Coinbase, BitMEX, Blockchain.com, Ledger, and many others. Within hours, the promise of Web3 resilience clashed with a brutal reality. Behind the smart contracts, the infrastructure remains vulnerable. Dependent on centralized Web2 services, many so-called decentralized projects expose a critical flaw. Vitalik Buterin sees this as a warning sign and a call to action.
