Vitalik Buterin: Ethereum 2.0 is harder than the developers thought

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin stated that the new 2.0 network is much more difficult to implement the previous version and will require more development efforts to launch. He spoke about this during a podcast with Peter McCormack.

“I admit that Ethereum 2.0 is more difficult from a technical point of view than it seemed to us earlier,” said Vitalik Buterin, while emphasizing that at the moment the work is being carried out at a high pace and the team will most likely have time to complete them on time.

In addition, during the live chat, the Ethereum co-founder responded to the opinion of the head of the Blockstream strategy division Samson Moe about the secret rivalry with bitcoin. “I no longer know what Ethereum is, what its functions are and with whom it competes. Is it the world’s computer or money? ”Moe asked. So, Vitalik Buterin emphasized that neither he nor the representatives of the Ethereum Foundation have ever considered ETH as money. “These judgments came from outside,” he said, stressing that non-financial applications are an important part of the project.
