Criticism of Aya Miyaguchi

Aya Miyaguchi, who has served as executive director of the Ethereum Foundation since 2018, faced criticism for inefficiencies. Crypto trader CoinMamba publicly called for her resignation, suggesting that stepping down might better align with community expectations and Ethereum’s vision.

Vitalik Buterin's Response

In his post on X, Vitalik Buterin rejected the idea of external pressure over leadership decisions, emphasizing that current decisions align with the Foundation's decentralized processes.

YOU ARE MAKING MY JOB HARDER. And you are decreasing the chance I have any interest whatsoever in doing 'what you want.'Vitalik Buterin

Community Position and Future Actions

The Ethereum community has suggested researcher Danny Ryan, known for his work on Ethereum’s shift to Proof-of-Stake, as a candidate for the Foundation’s director. The Foundation also faces criticism over financial practices and ETH asset management.
