Ethereum developers are quietly planning strategies for advancing the world's third-largest blockchain, as well as a previously undisclosed upgrade that could boost the capabilities of the technology more aggressively in the short-term.
Specifically, the minutes from four private meetings that took place at an ethereum conference earlier this month, refer to an upgrade named "ethereum 1x," possibly to be activated in June 2019.
While previously undisclosed, the minutes have been verified by one attendee who wished to remain anonymous. They told CoinDesk that developers believe the proposals are too early-stage to be discussed publicly. Other developers did not respond to requests for comment.
