"They're Not Working on the Burning Problems" — Viktor Bunin's Harsh Take on the EF

Description

What happens when the most important organization in Ethereum stops working on what Ethereum actually needs? Viktor Bunin has a clear answer: failure. In this clip, the Protocol Specialist and co-founder of Credibly Neutral argues that the EF had a responsibility to stay close to user demand — to hear what the ecosystem was asking for and drive it forward. The shift toward independent research priorities, he says, left the biggest problems unowned. And despite the wave of new orgs like Ethlabs entering the space, Bunin is honest: he doesn't love the multi-group model if it means no one is accountable for solving problems 1 through 3.
