Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin signaled that the Ethereum Foundation is transitioning into a leaner, hyper-focused entity.

Buterin said the EF is choosing "longevity over breadth," selling less ETH and focusing exclusively on Ethereum's "CROPS" properties.

Vitalik Buterin says the Ethereum Foundation will shrink its scope, hold 0.16% of ETH, and focus on privacy and censorship resistance.
