Ethereum Foundation Cuts 20% of Staff in Major Strategy Reset
The Ethereum Foundation has completed a major restructuring that cuts 54 roles, equal to roughly 20% of its workforce. The move closes a months-long review tied to its updated mandate and treasury policy. It also lands during a tense stretch for Ethereum News. Senior exits have raised fresh questions about governance, execution, and long-term leadership of protocols. The foundation says the new model will make its work leaner and more focused. Vitalik Buterin has also linked the cuts to a broader budget reset.
