PANews June 28 news, according to Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin's retweet on the X platform, the Ethereum client Geth v.1.16.0 has released an archive node based on PBSS, which means users can have a Geth archive node within approximately 1.9 TB of space (previously required over 20 TB of storage capacity), while also being able to query historical states (for example, what the balance was at Block X), but currently cannot provide proof for historical states.

According to Gate News bot, a series of posts on the X platform this week revealed that former Ethereum Foundation researcher and Geth chief developer Péter Szilágyi rejected a $5 million proposal to spin off the Ethereum core client into a private company. He also accused the foundation of secretly funding the competing Geth development team. "Remember my vacation? Yes, I had a one-on-one meeting with @0xstark (Ethereum developer Josh Stark) to discuss what I found out about the 'secret second Geth team'," Szilágyi (online name Karalabe) posted on the X platform on Wednesday, "Less than 24 hours later, I was fired by the foundation :)."

Gate News bot message: Ethereum developer Péter Szilágyi disclosed that the Ethereum Foundation had previously proposed a $5 million independent proposal to the Geth (Go Ethereum's main client software) team, but it was rejected by the team. At the same time, the Foundation also provided $5 million in funding support to Parity, aiming to promote client diversification and drop the reliance on Geth. In response, Tomasz Stańczak, the co-executive director of the Ethereum Foundation, stated that there are currently no plans to remove Geth and that the foundation will continue to support its development work.

BlockBeats news, on June 11, Ethereum developer Péter Szilágyi had a dispute with Tomasz Stańczak, the co-executive director of the Ethereum Foundation. Szilágyi stated that as a key member of the Geth (Go Ethereum's main client software) development team, the Foundation had proposed multiple times in the past to offer $5 million for the Geth team to operate independently from the Foundation, but Szilágyi and his team members rejected this proposal, choosing to remain within the Foundation. Previously, the Ethereum Foundation had provided $5 million in unconditional funding support to Parity (another Ethereum client development company) to ensure that the Ethereum network has multiple clients, dropping the reliance on Geth, which indicates the Foundation's long-term intention.

PORK and PNDC founder Jeremy Cahen has been listed on the top ten wanted list by the San Juan police in Puerto Rico, accused of assault, but it is currently uncertain whether he has been arrested or the charges have been dropped.

Jinse Caijing reported that ETHGlobal member Josh Stark wrote that the recent spending of the ETH Foundation has been a topic of discussion, and here are some thoughts and answers to some big questions. Firstly, we are writing a new report for the Ethereum Foundation, covering 2022 and 2023. We aim to release it before Devcon SEA. Here is a preview of the expenditure information in the upcoming report (specific numbers to be determined). These charts document both internal and external expenses. For example, "L1 R&D" includes funding for external customer teams as well as internal EF researchers. In the past two years, internal spending accounted for about 38% and external spending accounted for about 62%. Internal expenses include EF team, such as: - Geth； - Privacy and Scalability Exploration (PSE); -Solidity; - Cryptography research； -Stable Incentive Team; - Devcon, etc.; All of these teams work openly and share their activity information on their websites, Github, and social channels.
