Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin stated that an important but long underestimated form of "trustlessness" is to enable as many people as possible to truly understand how the entire protocol operates from start to finish. If only a few people have a complete understanding, the system still inherently carries the risk of centralized trust.

Vitalik pointed out that Ethereum still has room for improvement in this regard and in the future needs to enhance overall comprehensibility by simplifying protocol design and reducing system complexity. This will not only help expand the group of people who can participate in and audit the protocol but also enhance the transparency, security, and long-term resilience of the Ethereum ecosystem.
