The Ethereum Foundation (EF) announced a restructuring of its leadership on April 28, highlighting the focus areas of its two co-executive directors and separating the work areas of its management team and board of directors.

The changes are part of an effort to enhance strategic execution, strengthen internal operations, and further support the Ethereum (ETH) ecosystem as it expands.

Hsiao-Wei Wang and Tomasz K. Staczak were appointed as co-executive directors in March, as part of a restructure intended to balance technical expertise with operational leadership.

The EF clarified that the co-executive directors will work closely with the broader management team, executing the foundations vision through strategic planning, ecosystem stewardship, and operational oversight.

Bastian Aue and Josh Stark have also joined the management team with defined focus areas, including organizational strategy, hiring, project execution, and communications.

Management structure and board oversight

Under the new structure, the management team is responsible for daily operations, while the board of directors oversees vision and compliance.

The current board consists of Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin, president Aya Miyaguchi, Swiss counsel Patrick Storchenegger, and co-executive director Hsiao-Wei Wang.

The board ensures that management decisions and the foundations principles are aligned and has the authority to appoint and, if necessary, terminate executive leadership.

Buterin and Miyaguchi reiterated that Ethereums resilience depends on technical decentralization and social and structural decentralization.

The board emphasized that the Ethereum Foundation must maintain a flexible, supportive role rather than exert centralized control over the ecosystems evolution.

Strategic priorities

In a joint statement, Wang and Staczak outlined their focus areas for the next 12 months, with the priorities including scaling Ethereums mainnet, improving interoperability between L1 and L2 networks, to enhance user and developer experience.

They added that technical excellence would remain the foundation for all initiatives. The two co-executive directors detailed four guiding principles that will shape decision-making: censorship resistance, open-source innovation, privacy protection, and security.

They said that these values are central to supporting Ethereums long-term resilience and usefulness as a global public good.

Staczak, a Nethermind affiliate who participates in venture activities, will serve a two-year term as co-executive director, focusing on accelerating the execution of projects critical to Ethereums technical infrastructure.

Wang will bridge board directives and management activities, drawing on her research experience and historical knowledge of the Ethereum Foundations operations.

Vision for Ethereums future

In a separate post, the Ethereum Foundation articulated its broader vision, describing its role as a steward of the Infinite Garden, the title given to the Ethereum ecosystem.

The foundation stated its commitment to identifying and addressing high-leverage areas where its contributions are uniquely necessary, while intentionally stepping back to empower independent teams whenever possible.

The foundations long-term goals include maximizing meaningful Ethereum usage across various applications such as decentralized finance, social media, and AI coordination platforms. Another core objective is to ensure the resilience of Ethereums technical and social infrastructure through decentralization, risk management, and diversified development teams.

EF leadership noted that purposeful subtraction, designing systems that distribute power rather than accumulate it, remains a key part of its governance philosophy. The foundation aims to adapt its structure and initiatives without compromising Ethereums foundational values as the ecosystem grows.

The Ethereum Foundation concluded that it would continue strengthening its management structure and strategic focus, supporting Ethereums mission to serve as a resilient, neutral platform for global coordination across technology, finance, and governance.
