Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin said in a post on X that the Bitcoin community deserves credit for advancing related technical ideas, including UTXO-focused state optimization work such as Utreexo. He described Ethereum’s current scaling research as an effort to combine the strengths of different blockchain state models rather than copy a single architecture.
According to Buterin, Ethereum wants to capture the benefits of UTXO-style state, dynamic state, and designs that sit between the two. The goal is to let the vast majority of network activity reach what he called “hyperscale” without giving up decentralization, ease of running nodes, or censorship resistance. He also said Ethereum’s future scaling path is aimed at improving throughput while preserving the network’s openness and security.
The report added that Utreexo is a state-compression approach proposed in the Bitcoin ecosystem. By using accumulator technology, it reduces node storage requirements and makes full nodes lighter to run, a feature seen as helpful for Bitcoin’s long-term scalability.

Buterin said Ethereum’s scaling path now under exploration is built around combining the strengths of different blockchain state models in practice. In his description, Ethereum wants the advantages of UTXO-style state, dynamic state, and designs that fall between the two, so that the vast majority of network activity can reach “hyperscale” without sacrificing decentralization, ease of running nodes, or censorship resistance.
He added that Ethereum’s future scaling work is not about simply copying one architecture. The aim, he said, is to combine different design ideas to raise throughput while keeping the network open and secure.
The report noted that Utreexo is a state compression scheme proposed in the Bitcoin ecosystem. It uses accumulator technology to reduce the storage burden on nodes, making full nodes lighter to operate, and is viewed as potentially helpful to Bitcoin’s long-term scalability.
