Has Ethereum Lost Its Way?

Is Ethereum in danger of being all things to all people and being master of none? It needs to focus on its original ambition to be a World Computer.

Summary

Several sources raise concerns that Ethereum has lost focus on its original vision of becoming a "World Computer" by chasing short-term trends like faster transactions and deflationary tokenomics. This shift has led to a perception of Ethereum faltering and lacking direction. The sources emphasize that Ethereum needs to prioritize the development of a robust and decentralized infrastructure to achieve its goal, focusing on areas like improving the user experience of dApps, accelerating infrastructure development, and mitigating centralization risks associated with protocol upgrades. Ultimately, the sources argue that Ethereum's success hinges on its ability to build a solid and decentralized foundation that can support a vibrant and diverse ecosystem of applications and users.
