Vitalik Buterin says Ethereum’s next rebuild will rival the Merge, and take three to four years

- Vitalik Buterin claims Ethereum’s next rebuild will rival the Merge, taking three to four years. He prioritizes quantum safety and calls Hegota the last "pre-Lean" fork. Translation: we’re staring at a multi-year dev cycle while you moonboys chase pumps. Quantum safety is now top priority because apparently, future computers might break our encryption. Hegota is just a prelude to the real "Lean" era, which sounds like corporate speak for "we’re cutting features to save bandwidth." It’s not a roadmap; it’s a hostage negotiation with your own liquidity. While Vitalik plans for the post-quantum apocalypse, the rest of us are still trying to survive the current one. "Aggressive passive income" won’t help when the ledger rewrites itself. Keep your hash manifests tight and your wallets cold; the next upgrade is coming whether you’re ready or not.
