Vitalik Buterin Considers RISC-V a Crucial Part of the EVM

• RISC-V is a significant element in the EVM.
• A blockchain dev wants to implement RISC-V in the Ethereum beacon chain.
• EVM is economical and has the highest execution risk.

According to Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin, the Reduced Instruction Set Computing V (RISC-V) is a significant element in the Ethereum virtual machine (EVM). Buterin noted that the open-source instruction set is crucial in the existing validity proof formal verification roadmap.

The Ethereum co-founder acknowledged this while responding to a blockchain developer who sought his permission to work on an aspect of the EVM. The dev proposed having Ethereum’s beacon chain run the RISC-V and running the EVM in it. According to the dev, that would “make a lot of sense.” Buterin referred the developer to Alexander Hicks, an Ethereum team member working on formal certification and AI.
