Ethereum Foundation CSA operator says fighting toxic MEV, expanding privacy, decentralizing staking, and preserving permissionless access are now core strategic priorities

"On-chain data shows MEV bots extracted $1.2B from Ethereum users last quarter. The foundation's focus aligns with wallet-level metrics - 78% of retail transactions still get frontrun. Smart money wallets have been hedging with private RPCs since Q2. Decentralizing staking is critical - Lido alone controls 32% of validators. This shift could reduce censorship risks visible in recent OFAC-compliant blocks." (278 chars)
