In Defense of The Ethereum Roadmap | Mike Neuder

Is the Ethereum’s Rollup centric roadmap a Queen Sacrifice blunder? That’s the core question the industry is asking and Bankless has aired some of these dissents.

Today’s episode voices a counter to the doubters. Mike Neuder is an Ethereum developer and previous Bankless guest. He thinks the Ethereum roadmap is pretty great as is, it’s right on track, in fact, his message is to stay the course, play the long game, and watch ETH grow in value as a monetary asset as the Ethereum economy grows across L2s.
