During the ETH ChiangMai togETHer Tuesday event on January 27, Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin asserted that the blockchain trilemma—balancing scalability, consensus, and decentralization—is an engineering challenge rather than an insurmountable mathematical theorem. He highlighted technological advancements such as zk-SNARKs and PeerDAS that are being integrated into Ethereum to enhance system capacity while maintaining consensus. These developments reflect Ethereum’s ongoing efforts to address the trilemma through practical engineering solutions rather than relying solely on theoretical approaches.
