The board establishes the vision and monitors that the overarching strategies and decisions by management are in line with the Foundation\u2019s principles. The Board is also tasked with appointing Executive Director(s) and, when necessary, ending the employment of executives. The current board of directors includes:<!-- --><\/p>\n<p><!-- --><\/p>\n<ul role=\"list\" class=\"css-1onhfjo\">\n<li class=\"css-cvpopp\"><strong>Vitalik Buterin<!-- --><\/strong>, Founder \u2013 continues to offer technical and intellectual direction to the wider Ethereum ecosystem<!-- --><\/li>\n<li class=\"css-cvpopp\"><strong>Aya Miyaguchi<!-- --><\/strong>, President \u2013 shapes the Ethereum Foundation\u2019s vision with fellow board members.

The board and Tomasz have mutually agreed upon an anticipated two-year term for his Co-ED position at EF to take advantage of his established strategic execution expertise and experience, particularly as the following couple of years present substantial opportunities for Ethereum.<!-- --><\/p>\n<p><!-- --><\/p>\n<p class=\"chakra-text css-gi02ar\">Hsiao-Wei\u2019s dual roles on the board and as Executive Director, alongside her research background, will aid her in serving as a connector between the board and management, with a focus on the organization\u2019s needs stemming from a profound comprehension of its history and standing.<!-- --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.ethereum.org\/en\/2025\/04\/28\/ef-mgmt-board\">Source link <\/a><br \/>\n&#8220;`<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;`html The recent selections of the two Co-Executive Directors and President are part of a broader initiative to enhance the Ethereum Foundation, and this arrangement is intended to ensure our vision, strategic and well-balanced execution, technical guidance, and ecosystem advancement.
