Former Ethereum Foundation researcher Dankrad Feist proposed raising $1 billion to establish a new Ethereum advocacy organization
According to The Block, former Ethereum Foundation researcher Dankrad Feist posted on the X platform, proposing the establishment of a new organization aligned with the Ethereum economy to "save" Ethereum. He believes that the Ethereum Foundation currently holds less than 0.1% of ETH, with no staking or fee income flowing in, so the new organization needs to raise at least $1 billion in funding, managed by competent leaders, with part of the funds coming from staking income, and driven by a more responsible board to boost Ethereum's price.
Feist left the foundation last year to join Layer 1 network Tempo. He co-created the Danksharding shard design in the Ethereum community to enhance Layer 2 scalability, was appointed as a strategic advisor in areas such as L1 scaling and user experience during the restructuring of the foundation's leadership, and proposed EIP-9698, which would increase the Gas limit by 100 times.
