"Ethereum is in big trouble: The crowning jewel of ETH's roadmap is a poison pill: The ZK-EVM is terrible & will ruin ETH unless it corrects course Relying on ZK means catastrophically limiting ETH while adding insane hardware requirements A clear case of over-engineering: 🧵 That is because generating the ZK proof is extremely computationally expensive. Requiring arrays of top-tier GPUs which alone would cost upwards of $100K That is at ETH's current speed & capacity. The cost of these builders increases linearly with the demand placed on them. Combining that with the extreme relative"
