Amid this, Vitalik Buterin, the co-founder of Ethereum elaborated more about the anticipated innovated tech – Ethereum 2.0 project “Serenity” especially at a time when the Ethereum developer conference Devcon 4 held in Prague. Further speaking to the subject matter, Buterin said that the project constantly focusing a variety of features that the team have long been exploring to discuss and will undertake to work on it for three-four years now.

Further, he said, “…combination of a bunch of different features that we have been talking about for the past several years. We have been actively researching, building, and now, finally getting them all together.”
