The Ethereum Foundation (EF) has introduced a new strategy to strengthen its role in blockchain development and global adoption. The updated structure aims to scale Ethereum’s ecosystem through acceleration, amplification, support, and unblocking initiatives. With strong market signals and growing use cases, EF is expanding its teams to meet increasing demand from institutions, developers and communities.
Ethereum: Aiming to Maximize Usage and Resilience
Ethereum is experiencing increased adoption from enterprises, developers, and public sector bodies seeking practical blockchain solutions. The Ethereum Foundation has restructured its ecosystem development efforts into four key tracks. These include ecosystem acceleration, ecosystem amplification, ecosystem support, and long-term ecosystem unblocking.
The Ethereum Foundation has released “The Future of Ecosystem Development at the EF” outlining four key focus areas: Ecosystem Acceleration, Ecosystem Amplification, Ecosystem Support, and Long-Term Ecosystem Unblocking. EF also announced a new organizational structure, expanding…

The EF’s first major focus is on expanding Ethereum’s user base and preserving its decentralized values and infrastructure. The foundation has created four new internal teams for enterprise relations, developer growth, app relations and research, and founder success. Each team is tasked with removing friction and supporting different segments of Ethereum’s expanding ecosystem.
The enterprise relations unit will focus on creating tools and resources tailored to business needs. Meanwhile, the developer growth team will support the next generation of Ethereum builders through mentorship and guidance. App relations and founder success will push forward real-world application support and operational assistance for emerging projects.
Strategic Ecosystem Amplification to Support Growth
EF has launched several amplification initiatives aimed at boosting Ethereum’s visibility and operational efficiency. These initiatives will help track ecosystem growth, produce educational content, and run specialized events for different communities. The goal is to expand Ethereum’s presence in technical and non-technical sectors globally.
The Digital Studio will continue developing storytelling content and educational resources for broad audiences. Strategic Events will manage focused events that align with Ethereum’s priorities across regions and sectors. A new team named Ethereum Everywhere will build local hubs and developer communities to support grassroots growth.
 A new EcoDev Automation team will utilize AI and automation tools to streamline internal operations and enhance team productivity. These teams are evolutions of existing efforts, designed to add more leverage across EF’s impact channels. Devcon and Devconnect will remain under EF’s direct management but continue playing a central role in global Ethereum engagement.
Sustained Ecosystem Support and Global Coordination
The foundation will continue financial and non-financial support through three core teams focused on grants, funding, and operational aid. ESP and grant support will provide targeted application reviews and coordinate with EF teams on funding priorities. Strategic Funding Initiatives will co-fund public goods critical to the ecosystem’s growth.
The Launchpad team will work with new and existing organizations to improve governance, operations, and long-term sustainability. This team assists EF spin-outs and other aligned ecosystem players facing scaling and structural challenges. These efforts ensure that Ethereum-based projects receive the tools they need to thrive.
EF will maintain long-term coordination streams to support global blockchain integration. These include the Policy Coordination team, which tracks global regulatory trends and the Institutional Secretariat, which handles relations with governments and NGOs. The Academic Secretariat will continue expanding collaborations with universities and research bodies to drive blockchain innovation.
Ethereum’s growing relevance has drawn attention from major global actors, and EF is adapting its structure accordingly. With low transaction costs and robust infrastructure, Ethereum offers a scalable, cost-effective platform for large-scale applications. EF’s revised strategy reflects a commitment to building a resilient, inclusive, and globally relevant blockchain ecosystem.
