According to Cointelegraph, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has expressed support for early crypto investor and entrepreneur Roger Ver, who is embroiled in a legal dispute with the United States Department of Justice (DOJ) over alleged tax evasion. Ver is facing potential extradition to the US. Buterin echoed Silk Road founder Ross Ulbricht's call for the charges against Ver to be dropped, describing the case as "absurd" and "politically motivated." He criticized the US tax-by-citizenship and exit tax policies, noting that they are more stringent than those of most other countries. Buterin also condemned any alleged intimidation tactics by the IRS to obtain privileged information from Ver's legal team. Ver's legal troubles have sparked broader discussions about tax reform in the United States, with some lawmakers and citizens advocating for the abolition of the income tax and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). The DOJ announced tax evasion charges against Ver on April 30, 2024, leading to his arrest in Spain, where he was detained for several weeks. Ver was released on bail after posting $163,000, under the condition that he remain in Spain, surrender his passport, and report to court officials regularly. In a legal filing dated December 3, 2024, Ver's attorneys argued that the charges were unconstitutional and sought their dismissal. They criticized the exit tax law for US citizens with substantial investable assets, claiming it was vague and violated constitutional clauses. The case has drawn criticism from crypto investors, who accuse the DOJ of targeting Ver as part of the Biden administration's perceived anti-crypto agenda. Ver himself asserts that the prosecution is a result of his crypto advocacy rather than any tax-related offenses.

According to Odaily, Vitalik Buterin recently announced on X that Ethereum aims to implement the Fusaka upgrade on its Layer 1 network in 2025. This upgrade, following the Pectra update, will include the integration of PeerDAS. Buterin suggested setting the target and limit for blobs at 48 and 72, respectively. The goal is to launch a Fusaka testnet with these blob parameters the day after Pectra goes live.

Vitalik 于 X 发文表示：“2025 年我们需要在以太坊 Layer1 上实现 Fusaka 升级（注：Pectra 后的下一次升级），并配备 PeerDAS，最好是将 blob 的目标/限制设置为 48/72。我们的目标是在 Pectra 上线后的第二天启动一个带有这些 blob 参数的 Fusaka 测试网。”
