Buterin’s proposal has fueled significant interest in the Ethereum community and beyond, as it addresses one of the blockchain’s most pressing limitations: scalability.
8 / 15
The Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) has long been a core component of the Ethereum network, handling the execution of smart contracts and decentralized applications (dApps).

Currently, Solana stands as the blockchain with the fastest transaction speed per second (TPS), vastly outpacing Ethereum in this regard.
15 / 15
But Buterin’s proposal could help close the speed gap. If Ethereum adopts RISC-V and achieves the 100x speed boost Buterin envisions, it could dramatically improve Ethereum's…
