The ethereum community faces a daunting task: scale its blockchain ecosystem to securely support the growing demand for mainstream use cases.
"The 'world computer' narrative is a useful and good one. It's called the ethereum ecosystem, or the decentralized protocol ecosystem, of which ethereum will be a central component."
There are even several panels and speaking slots reserved for ethereum rivals, like OpenLibra or Ethereum Classic.
There aren't any finite plans to address the scaling limitations of the current ethereum ecosystem with the blockchain's upcoming iteration, Eth 2.
"The scope of who has been involved is an iterative process," Ethereum Foundation developer Danny Ryan, part of the team leading research for Eth 2, told CoinDesk.
Ch, adding there will definitely be a more concrete plan for compatibility between ethereum and Eth 2 in 2020.
In the meantime, Gitcoin founder Kevin Owocki, currently incubated under the ConsenSys umbrella, is looking to increase funding for open-source developers beyond philanthropy from original ethereum co-founders.
Like most ethereum fans at Devcon, Owocki isn't bothered by the experimental nature of ethereum infrastructure development, which is arguably less rigorous and conservative than traditional open-source projects.
ConsenSys security engineer Shayan Eskandari, a bitcoiner since 2011 who helped create some of Iran's leading educational resources for crypto users, said ethereum and bitcoin have inherently different philosophies.
When asked what he expects the ethereum community, including his company, to accomplish by Devcon 2020, he replied, "More good stuff."
