Vitalik Buterin: I Was “Dead Wrong” When I Thought Ethereum 2.0 Will Launch Within 1-2 years

Vitalik Buterin, the co-founder of Ethereum (ETH), has recently stated that he never knew he could eventually be wrong when he confidently thought Ethereum 2.0 would launch within 1 to 2 years.

Buterin made this known during an AMA session on Twitter, where he allowed the limited people he’s following on Twitter, including Billionaire Elon Musk, to ask anything crypto or non-crypto related.

A notable question regarding something he had a lot of confidence in but later turned out he was wrong came from Taylor Monahan, founder & CEO of MyCrypto.com.

Monahan asked, “What’s something you had an insane amount of confidence in, only to have it turn out you were dead wrong?”

In response, Vitalik Buterin, “Ethereum will move to proof of stake within 1-2 years”

In response, Vitalik Buterin wrote, “People are harder to tightly coordinate in small groups than I expected. You can’t just get everyone to sit around in a circle, see each other’s inherent goodness and get along, especially when huge incentive conflicts are at play.”
