Vitalik Buterin says fee-burn focus may need heavy-handed governance and lift gas prices

NewsFeeds update

Vitalik Buterin says sustaining ETH's roughly $270bn market value through fee burning would require protocol spending of about 700,000 ETH a year and cut validator revenue by around two-thirds. He says maximising fee burn could mean pursuing higher gas prices, locking some users out.

The story so far: Vitalik Buterin on ETH fee burn and store of value

Vitalik Buterin said ETH's store-of-value role matters more than fee burning, arguing EIP-1559's burn should stay even if it runs below 10% of break-even. He now says survival is the top metric if ETH is held mainly as a store of value. DeFi researcher Ignas says the shift should not come at the cost of L1 fee revenue.
