Maybe the part that I wasn't sure of is like maybe the block speeds don't necessarily come down, but transaction assurances come down very, very fast.

And you're kind of saying, well, that's what people want anyways.

Is that correct?

Right.

OK, understood.

OK, so you're saying there's a variety of ways in which Ethereum speeds up broadly.

And then there's like zooming into what speeding up means, you know, has nuances, which you just went into.

And as at least when it comes from a user experience perspective, we have ways of providing essentially instant speeds from the perspective of a user experience.

Right.

Let's talk about the rollout plan for the ZK EVM.

We are in phase of Ethereum where there is no ZK EVM.

In the future, we will be a phase of Ethereum where it is all ZK EVM, but it is not an acute moment as I understand it.

How do we go from A to B?

What does that roadmap look like?

You're allowed to be slow, and the network will hear you.

Exactly.

Right.

So as I understand it, the way that it happens is that in a year, we will introduce optional proofs.

The Ethereum enthusiasts of the world who just love Ethereum, tinker with Ethereum, run nodes for Ethereum out of just pure passion will start to do these optional ZK proofs.

They will be the pioneers of
