The Ethereum Community Foundation Gets to Work
No tokens, VC funding, or roadmap theater. Exploring three of the latest no-frills Ethereum tools created by the ECF.
The Ethereum Foundation positions itself as shepherding Ethereum into becoming a secure base layer for, well, all of civilization. With this goal in mind, the EF tends to have a more philosophical and neutral approach, so you won't see them beating the drums of the ETH price on X, for instance.
However, in a decentralized ecosystem like Ethereum's, anyone can step forward to plug any gaps as they see fit. Want more direct support for the ETH price? Make the organization you think should exist. You can drive the change, and you can make the empowering new resources that others won't.
