Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko stated that blockchain protocols must always “evolve” to survive.
Yakovenko said in a January 17 post on the X social platform that the longevity of the network is closely related to its ability to develop.

Yakovenko explains Solana’s AI-driven future
He explained that in order to avoid extinction, it must never stop changing to adapt to the changing needs of developers and users.
To continue to exist, Yakovenko wrote, it must still be useful, so the primary objective of protocol modifications must be to solve a developer or user problem. This does not mean to solve every problem; in fact, saying no to most problems is necessary.
Yakovenko envisioned a future in which Solana does not rely on a single person or core engineering group to drive these developments, but rather noted that protocol updates should arise from a diverse and decentralized community of contributors.
The Solana official also noted that artificial intelligence could play a crucial role in supporting… Rapid development of the network Forming their governance and writing their codes in the future.
Yakovenko stated that LLM can generate accurate SIMD specifications that LLM can check for completeness, clarity and implementation, and noted that the only long step is agreement and soak testing on the test network.

This approach will allow the network to achieve self-improvement at a speed that human teams alone cannot match.
At the same time, Yakovenko’s comments constitute a direct response A recent strategic vision presented by Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin.
Buterin recently introduced The concept of “withdrawal proof”. This represents a point where the Ethereum network becomes self-sufficient and continues to operate permanently without relying on its founding developers.
In this vision, Buterin explained, Ethereum reaches a state of “hardening”, which means that the value of the network derives from the permanence of the protocol instead of the promise of future benefits.
Buterin acknowledged that Ethereum must continue to change in the short term, but emphasized that the network aims to stabilize the protocol after passing specific technical obstacles.
These obstacles include the need Completely resistant to quantum computing, Sufficient scalability, and durable case architecture.
This intellectual confrontation highlights two different paths before the cryptocurrency market.
Buterin outlined a path to make Ethereum a trust-building system that focuses on security and immutability to attract trust.
On the other hand, Yakovenko developed a strategy that positions Solana as a high-growth technology platform. This means that the network focuses on speed and rapid adaptation to capture market share in a competitive environment.
