Ethereum's 'Strawmap' Roadmap Detailed: 7 Network Forks Planned Through 2029

Key Facts

1The Ethereum Foundation (EF) released a decade-long roadmap called 'strawmap' aimed at scaling the ecosystem and improving privacy.
2The project aims to increase transaction speeds to 10,000 TPS for Layer 1 and 10 million TPS for Layer 2 protocols.
3The plan includes strategies to enhance resistance against potential threats from quantum computing.

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin and researcher Justin Drake have provided further details on the 'Strawmap' roadmap, a comprehensive 10-year vision for the network. The updated plan outlines seven projected network forks scheduled to take place through 2029 to ensure systematic and robust upgrades. Key technical objectives now include achieving faster transaction finality and implementing native privacy features across the ecosystem. These goals complement previously announced targets of 10,000 TPS on Layer 1 and 10 million TPS on Layer 2 protocols. The roadmap also emphasizes long-term quantum resistance to safeguard the network against future computing threats. This structured approach aims to solidify Ethereum's market dominance by addressing scalability and security challenges over the next decade.
