2021-09-03 11:00:11 Vitalik Buterin named mistakes that slowed down the development of Ethereum

During the AMA session, Buterin answered questions from Twitter users, to whose accounts he followed on the social network, and also named the mistakes that slowed down the development of Ethereum:

• The co-founder of Ethereum called the decision to make the EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) 256-bit wrong, since it is significantly inferior to the 64-bit version in terms of data processing speed.

• But most of all, Buterin regrets the choice of eight people at once as co-founders of the project without careful analysis. As a result of constant disputes over the vision of the future development of Ethereum, 7 of its 8 creators left the project, including the founder of Cardano Charles Hoskinson and Gavin Wood, who is at the helm of Polkadot.
