TLDR
-
The Ethereum Foundation deploys a sustainable cash model focused on confidentiality, the challenge and the sale of minimum ETH.
-
EF’s new strategy supports decentralized and confidentiality tools while reducing the impact of the market thanks to the strategic management of the ETH.
-
EF introduces a 5 -year treasure plan with a DEFI exercise, risk control and transparent ETH reserve practices.
-
EF aligns expenses with open-source values, increasing confidentiality preserving DEFI and reducing the sheets of the cards.
-
With thinner expenses, quarterly updates and Defipunk DEFI choices, the Ethereum Foundation strengthens its ecosystem role.
The Ethereum Foundation (EF) has introduced a complete cash strategy to support the long -term development of challenge and confidentiality tools. The new plan prioritizes transparency, operational efficiency and alignment with the long -standing principles of Ethereum. The foundation will balance sustainability with strategic interventions of ecosystems during market slowdowns.
Treasury strategy focuses on sustainability and lowering market impact
The Ethereum Foundation will maintain a Treasury buffer of 2.5 years of operating expenses and will gradually reduce annual expenses to 5% over five years. This reduction will occur linearly and reflect the change from the organization to long -term sustainability. The Treasury Management Plan will ensure limited ethn of ethn and protect the market against unnecessary pressure.
The Ethereum Foundation has published its Treasury policy, describing a strategy to maintain a 2.5 -year -old operating expense stamp and annual ceiling expenses at 15% of total treasury assets, with a reduced reduction to a long -term objective of 5% in the next five years. A structured …

Policy will use two variables, annual expenses and reserve years to guide asset sales and determine the required ETH reserves. EF will only sell ETH when its so -called fiat assets are not below the targeted stamp. The Foundation provides quarterly assessments to realign the activity of the treasury with broader ecosystem objectives.
EF will rely on solo and yield challenges to cover operational needs. These movements will help avoid large discharges of tokens and generate chain yields. The Treasury team will continually assess risks such as contract bugs and liquidity problems.
DEFI deployments to support confidentiality and open infrastructure
The Ethereum Foundation will expand its exposure to the definition by tokenized active assets, loan protocols and implementation strategies. These allowances will follow strict criteria, including safety audits, access without authorization and the decentralization of the protocol. The objective of the EF is to support the infrastructure aligned with confidentiality and confidentiality through Ethereum.
EF defines “Defipunk” as a framework to measure the alignment of the protocol with the fundamental values of Ethereum of confidentiality, self-care and open source development. Supported protocols must provide confidentiality to transaction and data levels and avoid centralizing elements such as administration keys. The EF will also support protocols to develop decentralized user interfaces.

The EF intends to reallocate funds frequently according to market conditions, changes in return or evolution safety risks. These actions will not be interpreted as an disapproval of any protocol but as a proactive management of assets. This approach guarantees that capital flows to responsible and robust deficiency solutions that support network security.
Internal reforms and transparency stimulate the confidence of ecosystems
EF restructured its leadership and internal report systems to improve transparency and the responsibility of the Treasury. A financial team will prepare quarterly reports to show performance, asset allocation and strategic activities. Annual reports will further disclose the deployment of ETH and Fiat distributions to Crypto.
All Treasury -related activities will line up with the wider mission of Ethereum to build an open and decentralized company. The EF plans to adopt tools preserving confidentiality and open source infrastructure internally. Staff managing the Treasury should increase cryptographic tools and software improving confidentiality.
The Foundation is committed to using its position to encourage innovation in confidentiality by financing and public advocacy. By establishing these internal and external standards, EF aims to maintain its role as a long -term guardian. These changes mark a decisive step in the evolution of Ethereum to sustainable finance and privacy
