: The Ethereum Foundation has announced that Pascal Caversaccio, also known as pcaversaccio (or "pc"), has joined its Board of Directors, increasing the board's membership to four.Caversaccio is a co-founder of the Ethereum security organization SEAL 911 and a well-known security expert and privacy advocate within the crypto ecosystem. He has gained attention for his technical security capabilities, as well as his commentary on cypherpunk culture, privacy, and decentralization, and is the author of the "Ethereum Cypherpunk Manifesto".Aya Miyaguchi, Chair of the Ethereum Foundation, stated that Caversaccio brings not only security and privacy expertise but also practical experience highly aligned with Ethereum's core values. She expressed anticipation for the new perspective he will bring to the foundation, pushing it to think more deeply about security and privacy issues.Currently, the Ethereum Foundation Board of Directors includes Aya Miyaguchi, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin, Swiss legal representative Patrick Storchenegger, and the newly added Caversaccio. The foundation stated that the board acts like a "security committee," responsible for protecting the foundation's core mission and ensuring its compliance as a Swiss foundation.This appointment is also part of recent adjustments within the Ethereum ecosystem's governance. As the foundation has faced discussions regarding organizational changes, governance transparency, and roadmap coordination in recent years, the inclusion of a figure focused on security and privacy on the board may further strengthen Ethereum's cypherpunk positioning and long-term value narrative.
