#数字资产市场动态 The decade-long debate may finally be coming to an end—about the "trilemma" of public blockchains, a true breakthrough could arrive by 2026.
The old rules of the game were harsh: security, decentralization, and performance—public chains could only excel at two of these, as if constrained by an unbreakable physical law. But V神's recent new ideas have stirred the entire community: through PeerDAS and ZK technology, Ethereum's transaction throughput could increase by thousands of times without sacrificing decentralization. What does this really mean?
The core points are twofold. One is PeerDAS, which changes how nodes operate—no longer needing to download all data, but instead using "random sampling verification" to ensure chain integrity. The result is explosive performance without raising the participation barrier. The other is zkEVM, where nodes don't need to execute every transaction repeatedly; a single ZK proof can verify the entire block, effectively upgrading from "computing it yourself" to "checking others' answers," greatly reducing the computational burden on nodes.
Following this plan, between 2026 and 2030, we will see a lightweight yet robust main chain, with dense high-speed layer 2 networks running on top. Users might not even notice the chain's existence but will enjoy transaction throughput in the hundreds of thousands. Even more impressive, validation nodes could eventually be so lightweight that they can run on a mobile phone.
All of this ultimately points to one goal—the "trustless termination" that V神 has emphasized multiple times: even if all core developers and infrastructure disappear, the network can continue to operate autonomously and securely. This is not a compromise but a rebalancing of the triangle's edges through modular design.
So there's no need to choose one; just use a new architecture to challenge the old constraints head-on. I dare to bet that, years from now, the debate about the "trilemma" will seem as outdated as trying to breed faster horses before the invention of the car. Ethereum aims to build a new underlying infrastructure that covers global finance, truly belongs to everyone, and will never go offline.
Do you think this once "impossible triangle" will eventually become an outdated concept in blockchain history?

Alright, this time V God is again making empty promises. See you in 2026😏

Wait, running validation nodes on mobile phones? How many people would need to participate to make that happen? Feels more impressive than any marketing.

Alright, V God is playing magic again this time. I find it a bit doubtful... Running validation nodes on a mobile phone? Easy to say, but in practice? Let's wait until 2026 to boast.

Uh, it's the usual V God savior rhetoric... Alright, I'll believe half of it. Let's talk again in 2026.
