if I had to bet, I would wager that Solidity/EVM follows a similar trajectory to Javascript.
- someone makes a killer EVM runtime (V8), perhaps REVM?
- someone makes a **better** Solidity (Typescript)

Actually, this is a rather good idea.
If you believe in a particular open-source project, now you can *go long* on it.
Perhaps
@radicle
has an important role to play in this.
Crypto is so much more than DeFi. Crypto is about re-organizing the human society in every level.
A new way to fund open source?
- Be open source dev
- Issue a token
- Hold X% of it
- Has 0 value initially
- Award (100-X)% of it over time to folks who contribute code
- Companies then buy token to prioritize bugs & features
- Suddenly, an economy arises!

I **can't** understand why everyone is laser focussed on execution speed, but nobody cares about state growth, which **is** the biggest bottleneck we have.
I guess people like to tackle the problems they find the most interesting, not the most valuable
Please stop saying this. Ethereum isn't slow because of Geth. You could 10x the gas limit and Geth would be perfectly happy.
Ethereum is slow because the state grows like crazy. Whether Geth or any other client, it's the same shit. You need to store that state somewhere.

Hot take, but I am starting to believe that "EVM equivalence" is not as useful as I thought.
Protocols will have to redesign to deploy on L2 since capabilities are vastly different from L1.
You could do it in a different language. The principles would stay the same.
