In a recent Reddit post, Vitalik Buterin aired his opinions on recent controversial exchanges and tweet threads on Twitter with regard to Ethereum's governance. He said, " While I get frustrated with the antics of the ‘chattering classes’ myself, it’s important to keep in mind that Prysmatic, Lighthouse, the eth2 research team, etc etc are all continuing work right on schedule, and the recent governance noises, while loud and annoying, did not delay the progress of eth2 by even a single day." Ethereum 2.0 is a scaling and usability upgrade spec for Ethereum (a.k.a., Ethereum 1x).
