Ethereum Co-Founder Vitalik Buterin Puts Forward Plurality Solution to Tackle Crypto Governance Challenges
Vitalik Buterin, co-founder of Ethereum (ETH), has introduced the “Plurality” philosophy as a concept aimed at addressing the tension between the crypto ecosystem and traditional governance systems. The Plurality philosophy, as defined by American economist Glen Weyl, recognizes and fosters the flourishing of and cooperation between diverse sociocultural groups or systems.
Vitalik Buterin Envision Application of the Plurality
Buterin envisions the application of the pluralistic philosophy in various social and technological settings, believing that it can enhance cooperation and decision-making in areas such as blockchain, social media, and local government. He advocates for real-world experimentation in these areas, highlighting potential benefits such as enhanced autonomy, collaboration, and reduced polarization.

In the context of the blockchain ecosystem, Buterin sees the decentralized nature of the technology as a key factor. He believes that the pluralistic philosophy can address issues such as collusion and competitive pressures within the blockchain community.
Blockchain Protocols Chasing Decentralization
Furthermore, Buterin’s vision for blockchain aligns with the pluralistic approach, aiming to bring diverse actors together in a collaborative manner while resisting centralization pressures. In the Ethereum ecosystem, efforts are being directed towards improving governance, while other blockchain projects, such as Cardano, are also making conscious governance moves with upgrades like the Chang Hard Fork.
The Chang hard fork in Cardano is designed to enhance scalability and decentralize network governance, with over half of Cardano nodes already migrated to the upgrade. Additionally, Cardano has released an upgrade for the Hydra Head scaling solution, demonstrating a continued focus on technical advancements within the protocol.
