Ethereum has never been one to simply follow the status quo. The blockchain’s strength lies in its ability to radically alter the trajectory of the space, and to do so transparently.
The idea of Ethereum as the “cryptographic world computer” reinforces that. It proposes new boundaries for what the blockchain itself needs to do, and where different parts of computation should take place.
That opens up a huge number of new design possibilities for protocols. There are still plenty of questions about where these boundaries will ultimately lie, but that’s partly the point of setting out the vision early. We can challenge and it can evolve.

The cryptographic world computer:
My attempt to express in somewhat concise terms the true meaning of basically everything planned to happen to Ethereum starting from the fork after Hegota. It's really not just a blockchain anymore. It's a hybrid architecture that combines together blockchains and modern cryptography, to enable much more powerful properties.
FOCIL, EIP-8288, Lean consensus, state management, formal verification, advanced mempool improvements (including privacy), and the longer-term specter of obfuscation all mentioned.
