The "Crypto Casino" era is over. On Jan 1, Vitalik Buterin released a manifesto declaring Ethereum the "Rebellion" against centralized tech giants. The goal for 2026? A true World Computer that passes the "Walkaway Test."
We just finished the Fusaka upgrade in December, which doubled the gas limit to 60 million and crashed L2 fees by 40%. But Vitalik says we are only halfway there. In his latest roadmap update, he outlined the two massive hard forks coming this year: "Glamsterdam" (Mid-2026) and "Hegota" (Late 2026).
This isn't just about cheaper transactions; it's about "Civilizational Infrastructure." Vitalik's new standard is the "Walkaway Test": Can your app survive if the developer disappears? If the answer is no, it's not crypto. As BMNR scales its MAVAN validators to support PeerDAS, we are watching Ethereum transform from a slow database into a censorship-resistant supercomputer.
In this video, we breakdown:
The "Rebellion" Post: Vitalik's warning about the "Mag 7" tech monopolies. Fusaka Aftermath: Analyzing the massive drop in L2 fees since December 3rd.
